A 100 Hours to Suez, first published in 1957, is a firsthand account of israel’s invasion of Egypt’s Sinai peninsula in late 1956. Included are 3 pages of maps.
Henriques toured the battlefield immediately after the campaign, interviewed the commanders who conducted the land, sea, and air operations, and received the fullest cooperation from Israeli army and governement officials. Further historians, with access tot he records of both sides, may someday be able to write a fuller account; it seems improbable, however, that anyone will ever be able to write a more vivid or exiting one, or one which casts more light on the realities of power in the Mddle East of those days…

During World War II he served in the British army as well as with the American army, and, as he states in A 100 Hours to Suez: ‘during World War II, I spent much of my time serving with United States forces; i landed with United States assault troops at both Casablanca and Sicily; on occasion I have worn the American uniform with pride; I served with Patton in North Africa;I was twice given medals by president Roosevelt in reward for my services under general Eisenhower.’
