Traveling to Israel we read the book written by Aaron Leibel, about his family’s years spent living in Israel. Figs and Alligators is the recollections of the years Aaron and his wife, Bonnie, took their family and moved from America to Israel. They lived there through the 1970s and 80s. Leibel worked a variety of jobs in Israel, finally as a reporter and editor for Israel newspapers. He also served as a soldier, called up in 1974. The family experienced living in Jerusalem, on a kibbutz. They experienced living there through the Yom Kippur and the first Lebanon War and they were there when Egyptian President Anwar Sadat made his historic visit, which led to the first peace treaty. This is a personal story of a family living day to day in a turbulent , beautiful
Nation.
