Days of October (Yom Kippur War) by SA writer Betty Misheiker

86 pages.  Soft cover book in good condition.  Some minimal yellowing on the cover.

Five days before the Yom Kippur War, Betty Misheiker, South African Suthor arrived in Israel on a visit.  Upon her return two months later she wrote what has emerged to be an outstanding Jewish and literary document of lasting worth.  With deceptive simplicity, discerning insight and not without humour, her Days of October relates the progress of the war by baring the heart of a nation, evoking thereby a gripping and compassionate account of all that was experienced during those fateful weeks.
