Synopsis

This work chronicles the siege of Jerusalem by the Arabs of Palestine, and later regular armies of the Arab states, between March and July of 1948. It takes the form of a day-to-day diary, an authentic personal record kept by a foreign correspondent resident in Jerusalem at that time. The diary illustrates the effect of the siege on the daily lives of the men and women of the city, the rapid deterioration of living conditions and desperate attempts to break the siege. The author describes how he accompanied daring military operations in and around Jerusalem, and his conversations with terrorists, children, housewives and priests. He also discusses the fraternization between Jews and Arabs as soon as the truce was imposed.
