Description

"With insight into one of the principal figures of Zionism and modern Israel, this book explores David Ben-Gurion's political career in the years leading up to the Six-Day War and details many of the crucial issues and events the world is still grappling with. This book traces David Ben-Gurion's waning years in the Israeli political arena. After his resignation from the office of prime minister in 1963, the "Old Man" soon lost faith in his self-chosen successor, Levi Eshkol, and ceaselessly tried to undermine the latter's premiership, eventually forming a breakaway party."--Jacket.
