Battling for Peace by Shimon Peres
This book tells of the life of an extraordinary world statesman whose involvement with Israel ranges from the formation of the state through to the historic Washington peace accord. A refugee from eastern Europe, Peres reached office whilst still in his twenties as the state of Israel was born. As defence minister after the 1973 war he rebuilt Israel's army and architected the Entebbe raid. As prime minister in the 1980s he saved the economy from near-collapse. Latterly he has been central to the peace negotiations in Oslo and elsewhere. In addition to peace revelations, the book contains other controversial material including an account of the Dimona atomic energy project. His memoir gives first-hand accounts of history in the making and the people who shaped it.| SKU | Unavailable |
