Exceptional and powerful read. The harrowing backdrop to this story is given great depth by some of the best written characters I have encountered.

One of my all time favorite books. A must read!

When I first read this book at 13 I absolutely loved it and while I still have fond memories of it, I realize now some of the devices used to get reactions out of people. It's a little melodramatic but I think it can help people understand why the Jews need and appreciate Israel the way they do.

A powerful book and great story.

Epic is the word.
I haven't read a better novel on the formation of current day Israel.
