Menachem Begin: The Battle for Israel’s Soul by Daniel Gordis
Menachem Begin—maker of peace with Egypt, Nobel Prize winner, welcomer of the Ethiopian Jews to Israel—was shunned by David Ben-Gurion and renounced as a terrorist. In this sympathetic biography, Daniel Gordis, a prominent American-Israeli author and educator, shows Begin to be a bold leader and tireless fighter for klal Yisrael, the entirety of the Jewish people, and, with David Ben-Gurion, “both necessary elements in the creation of a Jewish state.”
