The Enigmatic Founder of Israel: A Nuanced Portrait of David Ben-Gurion
In this definitive biography of David Ben-Gurion, Israel's leading journalist-historian Tom Segev draws on previously unreleased archival material to paint a nuanced and startling portrait of Israel's founder. Determined from an early age to create a Jewish state, Ben-Gurion took control of the Zionist movement, declared Israel's independence, and navigated his country through wars, controversies, and remarkable achievements.
Segev's probing account ranges from the villages of Poland to Manhattan libraries and the hills of Palestine, revealing Ben-Gurion's secret negotiations with the British, his willingness to countenance the forced transfer of Arab neighbors, his relative indifference to Jerusalem, and his occasional "nutty moments." The result is a complex portrait of a twentieth-century leader whose iron will and temperament left a contentious legacy that continues to shape Israel and the Middle East today.
State at Any Cost is a gripping study of power and the loneliness of power, offering a fascinating look at a titanic yet unfulfilled man who sought a state "at any cost." A 2019 National Jewish Book Award Finalist, this masterly biography is essential reading for anyone interested in Israeli history, Jewish history, and the lives of influential world leaders.
