Specificatii
The incredible story of an Israeli mission that rescued 103
hostages from a hijacked jetliner. On June 27, 1976, Air France
Flight 139 was hijacked by terrorists and flown to Entebbe Airport
in Uganda. In the following agonizing days, Israeli passengers were
singled out and held hostage. A week later on July 4, one hundred
Israeli commandos raced 2,500 miles from Israel to Entebbe, landed
in the middle of the night, and in a heart-stopping mission that
lasted ninety minutes, killed all guerillas and freed 103 hostages.
In captivating detail, Stevenson provides a fast-paced hour-by-hour
narration from the hijacking to the final ninety-minute mission. In
addition to discussing the incredible rescue itself, Stevenson also
covers the political backdrop behind the hijacking, especially
Ugandan President Idi Amin's support for the hijackers, which
marked one of the first times a leader of a nation had backed
terrorist activities. An illustration of one nation's undying
spirit, heroism, and commitment to its people in the face of
threat, Operation Thunderbolt has become a legendary antiterrorist
tale. Although first written in 1976 (and published within weeks of
the event), Stevenson's account presents this act of terrorism in a
way that is still relevant in our modern-day political climate. A
factual account of what could easily be read as sensational
fiction, 90 Minutes at Entebbe will inspire, encourage, and instill
hope in all readers. Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our Arcade
imprint, are proud to publish a broad range of books for readers
interested in history--books about World War II, the Third Reich,
Hitler and his henchmen, the JFK assassination, conspiracies, the
American Civil War, the American Revolution, gladiators, Vikings,
ancient Rome, medieval times, the old West, and much more. While
not every title we publish becomes a New York Times bestseller or a
national bestseller, we are committed to books on subjects that are
sometimes overlooked and to authors whose work might not otherwise
find a home.
