{"product_id":"2940012518941","title":"Brothers at War: Israel and the Tragedy of the Altalena","description":"BROTHERS AT WAR, a nonfiction release from Quid Pro Books, is Jerold S. Auerbach's probing and poignant exploration of the tragedy of the Altalena, the doomed ship whose arrival in Israel ignited Jewish fratricidal conflict only weeks after its declaration of statehood in 1948. The destruction of the Altalena, with sixteen of its fighters killed by Israeli soldiers in a bitter two-day battle, threatened the new nation with civil war. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is the first history of the Altalena by a historian -- and the first to locate it within the context of ancient Jewish and contemporary Israeli history. The Altalena remains embedded in Israeli memory, Auerbach suggests, still framing unresolved issues of political legitimacy in the Jewish state.","brand":"Quid Pro, LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47177190080752,"sku":"2940012518941","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940012518941_p0.jpg?v=1763569799","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940012518941","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
