The War of Atonement
An authoritative account of the Israeli army’s performance in the bitter Yom Kippur War of 1973. In The War of Atonement, the origins of the Yom Kippur War amid the turbulent history of competing powers in the Middle East are fully explored, as is the build-up of Arab forces that almost inexplicably caught Israel by surprise. The author then provides a gripping narrative of the conflict itself, punctuated by firsthand accounts and interviews with combatants. The War of Atonement is full of drama and tales of inspirational bravery, as Israel defied the odds to defeat the two-pronged invasion. An analysis of the political implications of the conflict bring this epic tale to a close. For this...
Living History: A Memoir
In this at times startlingly candid memoir, Chaim Herzog reviews an extraordinary life. Born in Belfast in 1918 to a Latvian mother and a Polish father who was chief rabbi of Ireland, Chaim Herzog moved with his family to Palestine in 1935 and at 16 joined the Haganah, the underground resistance led by David Ben-Gurion. He joined the British army as soon as Britain declared war on Hitler, and was part of the first Allied formation to cross into Germany, where he subsequently witnessed the horrors of the newly liberated Bergen-Belsen concentration camp. He fought in Israel’s war for independence, and as director of Israel’s military intelligence molded it into one of the best organization...

Now updated to take account of recent developments in the region, this book tells the epic story of the modern state of Israel's struggle to exist through the triumphs and tragedies of its years of existence.
Key to the Sinai
In both the 1956 and 1967 wars, Abu Ageila was the main gateway to the Sinai for the Israel Defense Forces. Yet there were marked differences between Egyptian and Israeli war plans, preparations, operations, and results in the two battles for the area. In 1956, Israel carried the burden of a constricting alliance with Britain and France and faced other extensive military problems. The result was that Israel fought a difficult and costly battle for Abu Ageila. In contrast, in 1967, the Israel Defense Forces developed a brilliant operational plan and achieved effective unit command and control and attained a decisive victory.
Battle for Israel
Israel–not just for the tourist. It is a geographical knot in a tug of war between the superpowers. This book takes you into the political as well as the spiritual conflict. Written by a man with inside information, he presents a perspective not to be found anywhere else. Lance Lambert, long time friend of prominent leaders and an authority on the Bible history of the Israeli nation, is the author. He gives an ‘on the scene’ account of the Yom Kippur War–he predicts the future–his insight is unique. Never before has one man been allowed to enter into the confidence of Israelis to such an extent–Lambert, a Christian, welcomed and loved by Jews, describes the Battle for Israel.
The Yom Kippur War
An updated edition that sheds new light on one of the most dramatic reversals of military fortune in modern history. The easing of Israeli military censorship after four decades has enabled Abraham Rabinovich to offer fresh insights into this fiercest of Israel-Arab conflicts. A surprise Arab attack on two fronts on the holiest day of the Jewish calendar, with Israel’s reserves un-mobilized, triggered apocalyptic visions in Israel, euphoria in the Arab world, and fraught debates on both sides. Rabinovich, who covered the war for The Jerusalem Post, draws on extensive interviews and primary source material to shape his enthralling narrative. We learn of two Egyptian nationals, working separ...
