The Israeli Declaration of Independence, made on 14 May 1948 (5 Iyar 5708), the day the British Mandate expired, was the official announcement that the new Jewish State of Israel had been formally established in parts of what was known as the British Mandate of Palestine and on land where, in antiquity, the Kingdoms of Israel and Judah had once been.
This is a unique chronicle of that incredible victory. It is the story of courage and determination in the face of impossible odds. It's the saga of a people who finally returned to their homeland after 2,000 years.
