Operation Eichmann by Zvi Aharoni

Adolf Eichmann, the man responsible for carrying out Hitler's "final solution", escaped to South America at the end of the war. He lived a modest life, under an assumed name, as an Argentinian citizen. But he was not safe from justice. In 1960 the Mossad agent Zvi Aharoni hunted him down, confirmed his identity beyond all doubt, and in a covert and illegal operation smuggled him, drugged to keep him quiet, back to Israel. This great manhunt had all the drama and intrigue of fiction, but it is a true story, retold here by the man who pulled it off, against all odds.
Zvi Aharoni escaped Nazi Germany, as a young boy, to settle in Palestine. He served for a while in the British Army, and later joined the Israeli secret service, spending 20 years as a Nazi-hunter. Now retired, he lives quietly in a small Devon village. Wilhelm Dietl is a German journalist and author of several books on international terrorism.
