Turtles on a Black Gum Tree

Gary McIlroy

Turtles on a Black Gum Tree is a creative retelling of Charles Ball's 1837 autobiography, Slavery in the United States, closely following the original narrative. It recounts his upbringing in Maryland, his forced march to the lower South, and his escape and journey back home. Although he died in obscurity, Charles Ball left us with one of the most comprehensive and uncompromising portraits of slavery in the post-colonial era. There has not been a re-telling of his story in over one hundred and fifty years.   
Charles Ball walked from Georgia to Maryland in a period stretching from August until the following spring. The terrain was rugged and varied; the weather was alternately hot, wet, and cold; food was difficult to secure; shelter haphazard; and his clothes threadbare and inadequate. His shoes wore out quickly, and his second-hand boots failed so often that he had to wrap strips of hickory bark around his feet to keep them from falling apart. He had begun his flight from his late master’s plantation in Georgia on the ninth of August. By November, he had made it no farther than South Carolina. Inclement weather and starless nights had exhausted his patience; fear of being seen had worn on his nerves; loneliness and longing gnawed at his soul. If his physical and emotional needs were not at least partially met, he would falter and collapse, no matter the strength of his character.

Operation Balak: The History of...

Editors Charles River

Less than two weeks after the creation of Israel, the state’s leader, David Ben-Gurion, announced the creation of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF). This represented the combined military forces that would protect the new state, and while it might have sounded impressive on paper, the reality was very different. The new army was comprised mainly of ex-members of several paramilitary organizations that had fought for the establishment of the new state, but they lacked heavy weapons, armor and air defenses. The Israeli navy and air force did not exist other than as largely notional organizations, and at the beginning of 1948, the Israeli Air Force did not possess a single combat aircraft of any type.  
	To many outsiders, the defeat of the nascent Jewish state seemed a certainty, yet in an unbelievably short space of time, and despite international embargoes on the export of arms to the region, Israel was able to procure sufficient arms to equip its armed forces and to successfully defend its territory in what became known as the War of Independence (also known as First Arab–Israeli War). 
	This was not the last war that Israel would fight, nor the largest, but its very survival as a state depended on avoiding complete military defeat in 1948. The efforts to do so were tied to a series of secret operations that provided the aircraft and weapons that enabled Israel to survive the First Arab–Israeli War. The smuggling would center on procuring advanced European weaponry, which ironically meant that some of the weapons that reached Israel hailed from none other than Nazi Germany.
