'Thanks for a unique and special gift idea. I bought 3 packs to give at Bar Mitzvahs and they were very well received. I am sure I will purchase more in the future.'

'I saw this item mentioned in our web newsletter recently, and brought it to the attention of my congregants. The reactions were positive, and I am sure you will be receiving a number of orders in the future. The charity donation factor is a big plus as far as the Church is concerned, and this is sure to encourage people to order. I for one have already ordered my copy!'
Rev. Charles Benson, Austin TX
'I ordered my copy through your web site and was particularly impressed with the possibility to donate some of the cost to those charities with which I identify. The pack itself looks great on the bookshelf, makes a lovely coffee table item, and is very emotional to listen to. An essential part of every Jewish home.'
Joy Markham, Manchester England
'I am not Jewish, but I do support the State of Israel. I purchased mine through e-Bay whilst looking for something completely different! I find it very emotional to sit quietly in the living room with my eyes closed and listen to Ben Gurion. I really feel like I am traveling back in time almost 60 years to Tel Aviv! Also, the pack is beautifully presented. I would have suggested including a small photo album in the pack, but otherwise wonderful. Well done!'
