On May 14, 1948, under the stewardship of President Harry S.
Truman, the United States became the first nation to recognize the
State of Israel -- just moments after sovereignty had been declared
in Jerusalem. But it was hardly a foregone conclusion that America
would welcome the creation of this new country. While acknowledging
this as one of his proudest moments, Truman also admitted that no
issue was "more controversial or more complex than the problem of
Israel."
Impeccably researched and brilliantly told, based on
never-before-used archival material, "A Safe Haven" is a
suspenseful, moment-by-moment re-creation of this crossroads in
U.S.-Israeli relations and Middle Eastern politics.
