Editorial Reviews

From Booklist
This relatively short but comprehensive history of Israel begins with the launching of Zionism, the Jewish political movement for the establishment of a home for the Jewish people in Palestine. Bregman, a professor at Webster University, London, posits that, rather than the fulfillment of a biblical prophecy, it was harsh reality that led to the birth and development of Israel. The book contains some material published for the first time: extracts from a radio exchange between air control and Israeli pilots during the Six-Day War, for example, which shows that the Israelis realized that the ship they were bombing was American, but nevertheless went on to attack it. Bregman reveals the facts about an Egyptian spy who worked for the Mossad and who betrayed the Israelis, and he details the protocol of a secret meeting between Foreign Minister Moshe Dayan and Egyptian President Anwar Sadat's emissary in Morocco in 1977. Bregman takes into account all the major issues involving Israel's history. George Cohen
