Meer over het boek

Set during the 1948 siege of Israel, the narrative follows a courageous group of fewer than 150 volunteer airmen from various countries, including the U.S., Canada, and Britain. Many were World War II veterans who defied their nations' arms embargoes to support the fledgling nation. Their commitment led them to risk their careers, citizenship, and lives in a pivotal moment of history. This account highlights a stirring yet often overlooked chapter in the story of Israel's war of independence.
