Book Description
The author takes us beyond the history books, into the real world of the Jewish Underground of the 1920s and 30s, before there was a State of Israel. Building on years of painstaking research of archival material plus in-depth interviews via participants who still recall those 'Wild West' years, Zev Golan reveals how the heroes of the Jewish people performed some less-than-heroic acts while chasing the Arab gangs and the entire British Empire off their land. These same heroes, heroines and rogues went on to become the elite leaders - Prime Ministers, Rabbis and world-famous scientists -- of the State of Israel.

Glimpses of Lehi's Jerusalem
Author: John Woodland Welch
Publisher: Maxwell Institute
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 698
Book Description
Imagine Jerusalem around 600 BC, the world of Lehi, Sariah, Laban, Zoram, Josiah, and Jeremiah. How did people live? What motivated them? And what eventually destroyed their city? The answers to such questions foster better understanding of the prophetic words of Lehi, Nephi, and Jacob in the Book of Mormon. Much of that era was lost forever when Jerusalem met its prophesied fate and was destroyed by the Babylonians. The Temple of Solomon and the city walls were torn down, buildings burned, treasuries looted, people killed or deported, records lost or destroyed, and certain religious beliefs changed or extinguished. Glimpses of Lehi's Jerusalem offers modern readers a vivid look at revealing events in a crucial quarter century in world history.
