Few 20th-century leaders have captured the world s imagination as did Moshe Dayan. The Israeli general s victories were legendary; and, as minister of foreign affairs, he was one of the architects of the Israeli-Egyptian peace treaty. Yet, his personal life was marked by notoriety. His numerous publicized affairs and his reputation for aloofness and arrogance were common knowledge. In this moving and honest portrait of her father, Dayan brings to life the brilliant general and the difficult man. Dayan, herself a noted author, describes as well her own life and turbulent yet loving relationship with her father. The final chapters deal with the mixed reactions of Dayan and her brothers when, under the terms of their father s will, they were virtually disinherited in favor of Moshe Dayan s second wife. Overall, the book is not only a fascinating memoir, but an intimate and significant history of Israel. For most libraries. Andrea Caron Kempf, Johnson Cty. Community Coll. Lib., Overland Park, Kan.
