The Battle for Peace"This is the story of a miracle - how one dynamic, persuasive man with a vision, Ezer Weizman, Israel's former Minister of Defense, became a pivotal figure in the elusive search for Mideast peace. Only he could have written this highly personal, revealing account of what happened behind closed doors as mortal enemies were struggling to overcome thirty years of bitter hatred in face-to-face encounters that electrified the world." --from inside jacket. |
