<p>In 1946, lawyer Bartley Crum was one of six American members of the "Anglo-American Committee of Inquiry on Palestine" which spent six months in Europe, London, Cairo and in the Middle East studying the Jewish-Palestinian issue for U.S. President Truman. They interviewed many people, including David Ben-Gurion, Dr. Weizmann, the Grand Mufti, other Arab spokesmen, British officials and many, many others. They met, they talked, they listened; then they met, talked and listened some more -- in many places, including kibbutzim in Palestine. I imagine you can find the committee's official report in some U.S. government archive, but this book presents the insights of Mr. Crum, who (a liberal Republican) supported the birth of the State of Israel.</p>
