An impressiontistic look at gay lifestyle in Israel, this is the latest addition to the new Hot Shots series, offering high-quality photography and an innovative design, all at a beginner's price. Here readers will find natural shots of well-built young men and soldiers - intended not as a glorification of war but as a representation of how integral the close-knit soldier lifestyle is to Israeli life. Blending the private and intimate with the public and everyday, this book is as much a documentary as it is an erotic work of imposing colourfulness and unusual intimacy.
