具体描述
A History of Israel examines Israel's turbulent history from the first Zionist Congress of 1897 to the present day. Drawing on his considerable experience as historian and journalist, Ahron Bregman offers a balanced exploration of Israel's past in which the three principal driving themes of Jewish immigration, wars, and attempts to forge peace with Arabs and Palestinians combine into a single compelling narrative. New insights, revelations appearing in print for the first time, and portraits of Israeli leaders, past and present, are adeptly woven together with an overview of major events. This incisive book will be welcomed by all with an interest in the fascinating history of Israel.

A short national history since early Zionist movements, and of wars and compromises. Experience in the IDF gave the author approaches to documents and figures of the history, but also reminds readers about his perspective. Many mentioned passed naturally or assassinated, some remain active. This is a book of ongoing history.
