Israel Defence Forces
Decrees, Orders and Notices. Jerusalem: August 1948 - January 1949.
A rare complete set of the first printed orders of the IDF by the Israeli Military Governor of Jerusalem, Dov Yosef. With the capture of West Jerusalem by the IDF in the Arab-Israeli War of 1948, Dov Yosef (1899-1980) was placed in charge as Military Governor of the city. He issued these decrees laying down the regulations for the exercise of military rule in the newly occupied territory, and applying various civil laws and emergency orders in those areas of Jerusalem under his jurisdiction.

Born in Canada, in 1933 Yosef joined David Ben-Gurion's Mapai party. Three years later he became legal adviser to the Political Department of the Jewish Agency, later becoming a member of the Jewish Agency's Executive Committee and of the World Zionist Organisation's Political Committee.

8 issues, small folio (310 x 225mm). 42pp. consecutively numbered. Punch holes, secured together with green string (faint creasing in lower margin, first issue with a couple of very minor nicks near right-hand edge).
