These 4400 pages are the collected British government political and economic reports on the state of Israel from its creation in May 1948 to the end of the first premiership of David Ben Gurion. Ben Gurion, regarded as the 'Father of Israel', held the post of Defence Minister as well as Prime Minister during the first 5 years of the Israeli state, throughout the War of Independence, the first wave of immigration, the implementation of mass settlement, development projects and the signing of a reparations agreement with Germany. This was one of the most important periods in the history of the Middle East and the Jewish people in particular. The documents are written by British civil servants working in Tel Aviv, Haifa or Jerusalem and show the difficulties faced by the new administration in its relations with its Arab neighbours, the US and UK governments and international bodies like the United Nations.

These six volumes cover the government under Moshe Sharett which strove to find an accommodation between the Arab refugees and the security needs of the new Israeli state. The papers include: despatches on the internal government of Israeli-occupied Jerusalem; the status and position of the city of Jerusalem; Israeli-US relations; Israeli-UK relations; Israeli relations with the Arab States of Jordan, Syria, Egypt and Lebanon; personality reports with details on the ministers; and first full details of the Alpha Peace Plan from 1955. The papers reporting on Operation Alpha are particularly interesting; growing from British and US concerns about the Near East conflict, Operation Alpha began as a shared initiative in October 1954 and eventually, after several stages, became a solely US project a year later. Despite some documents which are still politically sensitive and have been either redacted or withheld the coverage is good.
