New York First Edition. First Printing 1992 Second Printing [stated] Hardcover Tom Keller (photograph of the author on rear of DJ Very good in very good jacket 671, [1] pages. Illustrations. Index. DJ has slight wear, soiling and sticker residue at bar code. Slightly cockes and front hing somewhat sprung. Signed and dated by the author on the half-title page. Some edge soiling. From a distinguished statesman, diplomat, scholar, and bestselling author comes an intimate portrait of the Israeli history he both witnessed and helped to forge. Eban was educated at Cambridge University. He began his governmental career in 1948 as United Nations representative for the provisional government of Israel, and became permanent representative in 1949. From 1950 to 1959 he served concurrently as the Israeli ambassador to the United States. In Israel, Eban has held many cabinet positions, including that of Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs. He was a member of the Knesset for decades. This is a passionate account of Israel's first five decades, written by one of its founding fathers. It is both an objective and subjective assessment of those history-making years. It was also the subject of a five-part PBS series. This is a political and social history at the highest level, presented without fear or favor, a candid testament written at a time when Eban was not constrained by being in office or serving as a diplomat. Eban traces Israel through all the fluctuations of its ...

ISBN10: 0399135898, ISBN13: 9780399135897, [publisher: G.P. Putnam's Sons] Hardcover First Edition Personal Witness, as its title indicates, is the passionate account of Israel's first five decades, written by one of its founding fathers, and it is both an objective and a subjective assessment of those history-making years. It is also the subject of a five-part PBS series to be broadcast in the United States and many other countries. Personal Witness is a political and social history of the highest level, presented without fear or favor - a glaringly candid testament written at a time when Eban is not restrained by the formalities of office or diplomatic niceties. Here you may meet Abba Eban, the man behind the statesman, writer, orator and historian - the man who said, "Men and nations sometimes behave wisely, once they have exhausted all the other alternatives". In the style that has won him renown, Eban traces Israel through all the fluctuations of its fortunes to which he was a witness and a participant: from its embattled beginnings and first struggle for international recognition, when "Israel held the joy of birth and the fear of death in a single taste"; through the successive wars and diplomatic crises, in which he was frequently a central spokesman and policymaker; to the dreams and often bitter conflicts of today. Along the way come splendid sidelights - reactions not only to events but to people, the men and women who ...
