Israel Undercover focuses on the execution of paramilitary counterterrorist operations against Palestinian guerrillas and the behind-the-scenes negotiations carried out among Arab statesmen, Israeli leaders, and American officials.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos.

On the 29 June 1914 Archduke Franz Ferdinand was assassinated in Sarajevo triggering events leading to the outbreak of the First World War. Less well known is that the car he was in was a borrowed Graf + Stift Double Phaeton, that the route was published in advance, and the decision to lower the hood was only taken at the last minute.
