Description

pp. [8], 240. "Utterly fascinating, in that what we come to know here is what has made the man who and how he is." - Kirkus Reviews. "The account of Prime Minister Begin's incarceration in a series of Soviet prisons, and his eventual release and arrival in Israel to become the leader of his country. His crime was belief in Zionism, and the time of testing he describes in this book vividly brings to life the formation of his own inner character and the sense of mission which he so evidently brings to his present awesome responsibilities." - dust jacket. "One of the greatest pieces of prison literature in the world." - The Times of London. Light soiling to top edge, otherwise book clean, bright and unmarked with light wear. Average wear to dust jacket now preserved in archival-grade Brodart. A quality copy. Book
