1994, inscribed 1st edition. Yitzak Shamir was born in the early part of this century in a small village in Poland. As a young man, he became a member of the Zionist youth movement, which did much to forge his strong ideological commitment even before he emigrated at age 20 to Palestine, then a British mandate, in 1935. Shamir became an active participant in the violence of the time, serving as a member of the infamous Stern Gang, for which he was arrested and briefly exiled. Here he reviews his activities in the newly formed government of Israel, culminating with his service to the nation as its foreign minister and then prime minister. A major contribution of this book is the account of the much-publicized rancor between Shamir and American President George Bush, which brought relations between the two countries to a low point.
