Retired Major General Amos Horev reveals the stories of the daily lives of the fighters and commanders in the Palmach—their failures and successes, and especially their motivation to fight to the end, even when the results were unknowable and the chances were slim. Through wars and missions, Amos remained a family man. His life story, which he tells with candor and integrity, combines with the story of Israel and the generation that broke the ground for those who followed.
