Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. Illustrated by Schwartz, Michel (illustrator). First Edition Thus. Of Jabotinsky, a man he knew intimately, Menachem Begin said "He wrote of Jewish strength before it came into being; of revolt before it took place; of a Jewish Army while its weapons were still a dream; of a Jewish State when many of our contemporaries still derided its very mention and of 'Hadar' (honour, respect) while the manners - or lack of them - of the Ghetto still prevailed in our people. Not many were privileged to know Jabotinsky as [the author] did. Therefore, anyone who wants to study the history of Jabotinsky's struggle for the redemption of the Jewish People, for the renewal of its strength, for the liberation of its Land, for the re-creation of its independent State, should read this unique biography of Ze'ev Japotinsky." - dust jacket.

Hardcover. Zustand: Near fine to fine condition. First edition. Quartos. xii, 467, 643pp. 16pp of plates each. Original turquoise cloth with white lettering on spines, in color-illustrated dustjackets, blue and white lettering on spines. Illustrated with 52 b/w reproductions of photographs depicting family members, comrades, the 38th Royal Fusiliers, drawings and documents, politicians and events. "This two-volume work by Joseph B. Schectman, Rebel and Statesman and Fighter and Prophet, constitutes the definitive biography of Vladimir (Ze'ev) Jabotinsky. Many histories call Jabotinsky a great Jewish patriot and statesman, but to others he was an amoral terrorist. A man whose memory commands both reverent loyalty and fierce hatred at the same time, he is most certainly one of the giants of modern Jewish history, and one whose life story reads like a history of the creation of the State of Israel."
