Large quarto (8-3/4" x 11-1/4") bound in original cloth with the name of the owner, General John H. Hilldring, stamped in gilt on the front cover. Text in French and English. Preface by David Ben-Gurion. Illustrated with photographs in black-and-white and in color. INSCRIBED and SIGNED by Israel's first prime minister in English on the half-title page: To General/John H. Hilldring/in friendship/D. Ben-Gurion/Jerusalem/5.6.58." Not only is this inscribed while Ben-Gurion was in office, it is also inscribed to an important figure in Israel's early history. General John Hilldring was the U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for Occupied Areas during World War II and was responsible for organizing military governments for countries to be liberated or conquered. Hilldring recommended Colonel David "Mickey" Marcus, a Jewish officer who had been under his command, to Ben-Gurion. Marcus, under the name of "Michael Stone," designed a command structure for Israel's new army and wrote manuals to train it. As a result of his efforts Israel, when it declared independence and the Arab armies attacked in May 1948, defended itself successfully. In gratitude, Ben-Gurion made Marcus the first general in the army of Israel since Judah Maccabee nearly two thousand years ago. He was accidentally killed at the age of 46 by a Jewish sentry six hours before a United Nations negotiated cease fire began. The film CAST A GIANT SHADOW was based on his life. Ben-Gurion said of him, "He was the best man we had."
