In this groundbreaking work of historical research, Bruce Hoffman America s leading expert on terrorism brilliantly re-creates the crucial thirty-year period that led to the birth of Israel. Drawing on previously untapped archival resources in London, Washington, D.C., and Jerusalem, "Anonymous Soldiers" shows how the efforts of two militant Zionist groups brought about the end of British rule in the Middle East. One of the most detailed and sustained accounts of a terrorist and counterterrorist campaign ever written, Hoffman has crafted the definitive account of the struggle for Israel and an impressive investigation of the efficacy of guerilla tactics."
