Synopsis

'Letters from Israel' consists of the letters she wrote from Israel to her family in the states. When Nadene returned to the states, she found that her mother had saved all the letters and presented them to her in a bag saying, 'Your letters were always so interesting! Now go and write a book with them.' That is what she has done. She felt that every day was a new experience for her, and was eager to relate her experiences to her family. She was able to meet and become a friend to Stanley Goldfoot in Jerusalem who is written up in several history books while pursuing her genealogy hobby. She experienced what it was like to be in a war in 1982 when Israel and Lebanon were in conflict. If her mother was intrigued with her letters, maybe you will be, too.
