Abba Eban: An Autobiography

In This Review

By Abba Eban

Random House, 1977, 628 pp

For those who might wonder whether Eban, after so many speeches and earlier books, has anything further to say, the answer is affirmative. This personal story is an informal and informative history of Israel's diplomacy since before the birth of the state and also includes a mixture of philosophic reflection and views on personalities and politics, all presented in Eban's well-known felicitous style.
