The Glory. Herman Wouk. 1994.

In The Glory Wouk continues the story of Israel in the twentieth century.

From the euphoric aftermath of that stunning victory in 1967, through the harrowing battles of the Yom Kippur War, the heroic Entebbe rescue, the historic Camp David Accords, and finally the celebration of forty years of independence and the opening of the road to peace, Wouk immerses us in the bloody battles, the devastating defeats, the elusive victories. He plunges us into the lives and loves of the men and women introduced in The Hopem such as armor officer and Washington attache Zev Barak, long in love with the American Emily Halliday and father of a naval officer who fights in Israel’s little-known yet remarkable sea battles.
