Modern Israel's war history and military victories will always fascinate many military history buffs, who cannot help but wonder how the small Jewish state won the 1948 Arab–Israeli War and the 1967 Six-Day War over more powerful, more numerous, and more military advanced Arab neighbors.
Of course, many people know Israel won due to their well-prepared and enacted strategies and pro-activeness in establishing air superiority, which Israel owes to Al Schwimmer, the subject of the historical book “Al, The Israeli Prometheus” by Varda Yoran.
“Al, The Israeli Prometheus” tells the story of the heroic exploits and sacrifice of Al Schwimmer, as he orchestrated clandestine missions to provide military equipment for Israeli defense during the 1948 Arab–Israeli War.
Al Schwimmer believed that the law and justice were not always on the same team. In some instances, breaking the law was necessary to do the right thing. He risked his life to discreetly provide the embattled Jews, outnumbered and faced with annihilation, with priceless weaponry and aerial defense that would have been impossible for them to withstand the onslaught of five encircling armies.
This book demonstrates how a single person's principles, determination, and vision may change the direction of the nation's history.
To know more about Al Schwimmer's story, his impact on Israel's military history, and his contribution to the Israeli aviation industry, get a copy of “Al, The Israeli Prometheus” by Varda Yoran today on Amazon.
“Al, The Israeli Prometheus” will be displayed by self-publishing and book marketing company ReadersMagnet at their exhibit at booth 1147 for the 2022 American Library Association (ALA) Annual Conference & Exhibition on June 23-28, 2022, at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center, Washington D.C.
