My spirited and pioneering aunt, Ruby Mordecai, made aliyah from Calcutta in 1945 with her new husband Eli, her brother and sister-in-law, Meyer and Rachel, and a small group of friends. She has just written a riveting memoir, Remembering Who I Am, that captures the essence of Israel's early years, including the very first Yom Ha-Atzmaut, 1948, and the tug of faraway family. http://www.rememberingwhoiam.com.au/
