5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant and Indispensable, December 11, 2005
This review is from: History of Israel's War of Independence - Vol. II (Hardcover)
This brilliantly researched piece is true history at its best. Meticulously well done it is the only good history of the 1948 war, a masterpiece that is unfortunately only half completed. It details struggles, debates, raids and ambushes in the most honest and fair manner, using concrete evidence without bias and without politics. This book should be required reading for the Israeli-Arab conflict, however it is often brushed over to more easy to read shorter histories of the 1948 war. However despite this many volumed length of the project this is a grasping and exciting read, drawing on military and political topics, discussing minorities and often unheard of events. All students of the middle east and Israel and military history will enjoy this.

Volume II covers the period between November 29th, 1947 the partition resolution and the end of the Mandate, April 15th 1948.
