O Jerusalem! Day by Day and Minute by Minute, the Historic Struggle for Jerusalem and the Birth of Israel [Buy it!] | Larry Collins, Dominique Lapierre | USD 10.00 (Sun May 26 16:11:59 2024) | Abebooks | Strand Book Store, ABAA | ISBN10: 0671662414, ISBN13: 9780671662417, [publisher: Touchstone] Softcover This classic retelling of the spellbinding events of the birth of Israel weaves a brilliant, moment-by-moment, tapestry of shattered hopes, fierce pride, and breathtaking daring as the Arabs, Jews and British collide in their fight for control of Jerusalem. The book profiles the Jewish fighters, from the commanders Ben Gurion and Golda Meir to the soldiers, rabbinical students, and refugees taken directly from their ships to fight; and the Arab soldiers, from the explosives expert planting bombs to the charismatic chieftain whose death in battle doomed the Arab cause but inspired a generation of Palestinians; as well as the British efforts of peacekeeping after General Allenbyâs conquest of Jerusalem to their departure in the face of the onslaught.
