By A Customer
This review is from: Days of Fire (Hardcover)
For anyone who is tired of the propaganda surrounding the creation of the state of Israel, and is interested in either a great read, or an amazingly detailed bibliography with which to start their research on the above subject, this is the book for you.

5.0 out of 5 stars Historical account of pre-state Israel, September 30, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Days of Fire (Hardcover)
Shmuel Katz was there. First he was an Israeli newspaper reporter. Then, the personal assistant to pioneering zionist Ze'ev Jabotinsky. Next a leader of the Irgun alongside David Raziel and Menachem Begin. An account of all that went down with Britain's hope of crushing Israel, David Ben-Gurion's traitorous Haganah, what happened at Dir Yassin, the King David hotel bombing. I take great pride in having read this book as a truth seeking Israeli Jew and all others like me should clamor to have this amazing predecessor to Katz' "Battleground" republished. It's Israeli history at its best (and worst). Plus, its easy to read. 5 Magens!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Bring it Back, September 14, 2003
By 
This review is from: Days of Fire (Hardcover)
Shmuel Katz's account of the revolt leading to the formation of Israel and the expulsion of the British, is as poignant today as it was when it was originally published more than forty years ago. It is a torrid page turner that should be read by anyone interested in the factual accounts of the early days of Israel. It is unbelievable to me that it is no longer published and is very hard to come by. Anyone fortunate enough to find a copy will realize they have come across a gem!!
