This is book by David Zwebner of Ashkelon and would make a great gift for anyone interested in history. Amazon’s description: Modern Ashkelon is a stunning coastal city in the South of Israel, home to a microcosm of the people who make up the State of Israel. From a marina that’s teeming with life, including restaurants, movie theaters, and boutique shops, to glorious beaches where Arabic, Hebrew, Russian, Spanish and English are all spoken fluently. But how did modern day Ashkelon become this cosmopolitan city? The Founding of Modern Ashkelon provides an understanding of the South African Jewry’s contribution to the establishment of the State of Israel between 1949-1959. Specifically, their contributions to the new city of Ashkelon as a home for new immigrants. Read a review of the book at https://ashkelon123.com/capture-of-al-majdal/
