A contemporary history of Israel in cassette form will soon be available to Danish schools, it was announced here. The tapes will cover the period from 1947 when the United Nations called for the formation of an Independent Jewish State in the Middle East up to modern times with interviews and commentaries by current Israeli personalities. Danish journalist and radio commentator Hans Vangkilde, known for his pro-Israeli sympathies, is compiling the tape collection. He also intends to begin writing a book on Israel this summer.
