"Tremendous best seller from which Columbia Pictures has made the Fred Kohlmar Production starring Paul Muni and David Wayne. Seething with emotion and drama, this is the story of a heroic doctor" - "one of the most vital characters in modern fiction." The teen-age hoods, the lazy cops, the hymn-singing old ladies in that Brooklyn slum, all knew Samuel Abelman - doctor to the damned.
