Book Synopsis Committee of One by : Patricia Martin Holt
Book excerpt: Meeting Leila Wahbeh was a life-changing event for the author. Wahbeh's story unfolds with her family's flight from Jerusalem to Egypt in 1947 to avoid the terrors of the war with Israel, and their return four years later to find they had lost everything. During the 1967 war, her husband was deported for rendering aid to war victims, leaving Leila and their four children in Jerusalem as pawns for his good behavior and hers. Despite the probability of her own imprisonment, with circumstances weighed against her, she continues her crusade for the poor.
