Seller Description
Israel's great leader and statesman--author of "My People," the best-selling book that told the history of the Jews, and of "My Country", the story of Israel--now recounts his own life story. His book is at once the moving personal history of one of the foremost men of our century and a behind-the-scenes, amazingly frank diplomatic history of contemporary international affairs. It is, in fact, the story of Eban the statesman and Eban the man. Born in South Africa, the son of Lithuanian immigrants, Eban spent his childhood in London. His grandfather, a man of great learning, had a profound influence on the boy and saw to it that his education included a thorough background in Hebrew studies--in the language, history and laws of the Jews. Later, when he met Chaim Weizmann and other early, inspiring leaders of Zionism, Eban became infused with their passion and commitment;his destiny as a leader of his people was set.
