From the battles of the ancient Israelites to the modern conflicts of the State of Israel, Wars of the Jews presents a sweeping and authoritative military history that spans over three millennia of Jewish warfare, survival, and resilience. Monroe Rosenthal and Isaac Mozeson chronicle the great campaigns, sieges, and warriors that shaped Jewish destiny — from the conquest of Canaan and the Maccabean revolt against the Seleucid Empire, through the catastrophic Jewish-Roman wars, the Crusades, and into the defining modern conflicts of the 20th century, including the Israeli War of Independence and the Six-Day War. Part of the prestigious Hippocrene Jewish History Series, this work stands as a comprehensive and accessible reference for both the casual reader and the serious student of military history. Rosenthal and Mozeson write with clarity and conviction, grounding each conflict in its broader political and theological context while never losing sight of the human drama at the heart of each battle. Illustrated by Keith Gunderson, the text is enriched with visual detail that brings these ancient and modern theatres of war to vivid life — leaving readers to wonder how one people's martial story could so profoundly shape the course of world civilisation.
