Notes From the Frontier

Hugh Nissenson was a young American writer who was given a job in a movie project in Israel. His curiosity and interest led him to spend the next two years living on a kibbutz in the north of the country close to the Syrian border. 'Notes from the Frontier' is his record of that stay, one which portrays with great sympathy and insight the lives of pioneers striving to realize their ideal while contending with a hostile neighbor.
