<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>With Moshe and Rachel trapped behind the walls of the Old City, British forces prepare to leave Palestine. David recruits help from America to join in the efforts.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>The Zion Chronicles series covers the events surrounding Israel's statehood in 1948. Each book vividly portrays the intense struggle of the Jewish people in the aftermath of the Holocaust and the forces, within and without, which engulf the Middle East in conflict and controversy even today. <i>Will there ever be peace in Zion?</i> The Jewish people wonder as they stream into the British Mandate of Palestine after the devastation of World War II. What has happened to God's promises to their nation? These updated classics feature a new look and added study questions suitable for individual use or group discussion.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><P>A nation will stand or fall . . . and it's all up to one World War II fighter ace. <P> The Old City of Jerusalem is under siege in February 1948. Food and fuel are scarce. Weapons with which to defend the Jewish Quarter are even more so. The U.S. arms embargo against the Jews is still in effect, even though the British openly sell weapons to the Arabs. The Jewish nation needs a miracle. <P> David Meyer is given a dangerous assignment-to hire pilots and buy war-surplus planes that could fly to Palestine the instant statehood is declared. It could cost him his U.S. citizenship, and it would mean leaving Ellie, his bride, in harm's way. <P> Worse, the British and the Arab secret operative Montgomery seem to know his every move. Even Haganah leader Moshe Sachar, who has just wed the beautiful Rachel Lubetkin, becomes the target of an evil conspiracy. <P> When David signed up for the war, he hadn't signed up to carry the weight of a nation. Especially when betrayal swirls in the very air. . . . <P> Special Feature: Study questions suitable for individual use or group discussion.
