Anonymous Soldiers

In this groundbreaking work, Bruce Hoffman examines the crucial thirty-year period leading to Israel's birth, drawing on untapped archival sources to detail how the 'anonymous soldiers' of the Irgun and Lehi defeated British rule through bombings, assassinations, and other tactics, including the King David Hotel bombing and Lord Moyne's assassination.

The book provides one of the most comprehensive accounts of this terrorist and counterterrorist campaign, analyzing the efficacy of such strategies and their role in creating the state of Israel.
