Commentary Of Books Ô Jérusalem

One of the best books written on the Israeli War of Independence and the birth of a nation. Written in the journalistic style of the authors, it documents on a day-to-day and a street-by-street basis the battle for Jerusalem in 1948, when Israel came into existence!

What a tremendous read at this 60th anniversary of the state of Israel. This book brings to life the tragedies and triumphs of the 1948 War in Palestine/Israel, depending on your point of view. A terrorist bomb of 55 gal drum filled with rusty nails, bolts and explosive set off amid shoppers and workers catching the bus back home...the work of a Jewish terrorist group. Protecting the defeated fighters of an outpost from the crazed crowds...the task of soldiers of the Arab Legion. This book tells

In the wake of the unrest in Syria and that part of the world and my growing interest in understanding the history behind this age old struggle, I picked up this book. This is an account of the war for the independence of Israel which focuses on the struggle between the British and the various Jewish and Moslem armies for Jerusalem. It is a very engaging narrative with a fairly unbiased viewpoint. The war has been described in very graphic detail- brace yourself. The small yet tenacious

My obsession with Israel continues. O Jerusalem traces, with a staggering amount of detail, the history of the creation of the state of Israel. Beginning with the UN partition of Palestine on November 29, 1947 - which ended 30 years of British mandate and subsequent control after WWI - through a second ceasefire between Jewish and Arab forces on July 19th, 1948, the story seems truly to have been written by an omnipotent author that somehow was present at every battle, meeting, negotiation,

O Jerusalem is yet another proof of Collins and Lapierre's amazing skills of narration. They remind us once again that there is a story in history. A gripping narrative, quite unbiased (although not completely), painstakingly recreates the events around the birth of Israel, with a dramatic flair that is typical of the pair.

This is an account of the war for the independence of Israel which focuses on the struggle between the British and the various Jewish and Moslem armies for Jerusalem. I was impressed by the effort made by the authors to be balanced, not painting any side as being totally good or bad.A older friend of mine, Andre, was involved in the events following this war, becoming himself an officer in the Israeli army during the war of independence. Polish and a communist, he fought in the southern army,

Wonderfully written account of Israel's war for independence 1947 -48. What I particularly liked about it is the objective view of the conflict from all sides. Having just returned from Jerusalem, where I stayed right inside Jaffa's Gate, the descriptions of the fighting were very real to me.
