Discover the full story of the State of Israel since it was established until this day. Year by year, the drama of this state's history is studied and analyzed, the most important events in politics, security, art, sports, and the everyday life are all carefully described. The texts are accompanied by authentic pictures taken by the best photographers who captured the moments with their cameras. The crown jewels in this book are 60 articles - one for each year - that discuss the year's most important event or most influential figure. They were written by some of Israel's most prominent writers, poets, philosophers, politicians, political leaders, army commanders, journalists, and media persons. The tale of Israel's 60 years of existence is the most exciting, dramatic, and fascinating story of the 20th century and beyond. We, the Israelis, find this hard to comprehend and appreciate because we live the stories; we are too close to them. This book, however, can be read as a moving, sad, and exciting story that may be difficult at times, but is always fascinating.
