In November, 1944, World War II still raged, but the tide was beginning to shift. The Allies had made significant advances in Europe, and the Battle of the Bulge was about to irreparably harm the German military. At this time, the British government agreed to send a brigade of five thousand Jewish volunteers from Palestine to Europe to join the fight.
At the war's end, the Palestinian brigade witnessed the horrors suffered by their fellow Jews, and embarked on a campaign of vengeance. But a chance encounter turned the soldiers away from violence and towards a more peaceful mission -- rescuing Jewish war orphans. The Brigade is a thrilling historical adventure about how a Jewish army proved they could be victorious in both war and peace. Howard Blum is the bestselling author of five critically acclaimed nonfiction books, including Wanted! The Search for Nazis in America, Gangland, and The Gold of Exodus. As a reporter for the New York Times, Howard Blum was twice nominated for the Pulitzer Prize. Currently he is a contributing editor to Vanity Fair. Mr. Blum lives with his wife and three children in Connecticut. "Howard Blum's remarkably written and documented The Brigade is more than a story about memory, justice and vengeance; it is a moving evocation of events and people whose tears and dreams will continue to haunt humanity for centuries to come." -- Elie Wiesel, Nobel Laureate and author of Night
