Says Bar-Zohar, "These heroes and
heroines have a lot in common: a pure
soul and a burning dream, extreme
modesty, a humane approach to both
their friends and enemies, a deep love
of their land and a total identification
with their nation."

capturing the youth of contemporary
Israel, this volume documents the
daily life, joys and sorrows of the Jews,
Christians and Arabs populating this
tiny nation. Organized by decades
into chapters and accompanied by a
text from the reminiscences of the
photographers who were there, Israel:
Fifty Years is a volume of stunning
color and black-and-white pho-
tographs that provide a remarkable
panorama of life in Israel.
