{"product_id":"angels-in-the-sky-robert-gandt-9780393356359","title":"Angels in the Sky: How a Band of Volunteer Airmen Saved the New State of Israel","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn 1948, when the newly founded nation of Israel came under siege from a coalition of Arab states, a band of volunteer airmen from the United States, Canada, Britain, France, and South Africa arrived to help. They were a small group, fewer than 150. Many were World War II veterans; most of them knowingly violated their nations' embargoes on the shipment of arms and aircraft to Israel. The airmen risked everything--their careers, citizenship, and lives--to fight for Israel. The saga of the volunteer airmen in Israel's war of independence stands as one of the most stirring--and little-known--war stories of the past century.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Robert Gandt\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0393356353\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780393356359\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e W.
