Illegal Jewish immigration to Palestine prior to the founding of
the State of Israel forms one of the most fascinating chapters in
the history of Zionism and modern Jewish history. Bringing Jews
from Europe to Palestine by land and by sea in defiance of
restrictive British immigration policies was partly an undertaking
of national rescue and partly a calculated strategy of political
brinksmanship. In this compelling analysis, Ofer examines various
illegal immigration and rescue efforts organized by the Palestinian
Jewish community in both the beginning and latter phases of the
war. Making exhaustive use of archival sources, Ofer provides
invaluable insight into the struggles of the immigrants, the
activists and supporters of the movement, the logistical obstacles,
and the political forces working to halt or exploit the flow of
refugees.
