Review # 1 was written on 2015-10-14 00:00:00 Alain Lemarbre This is pure nostalgia. As a History student I had to get acquainted with the sources. This was one of the more valuable introduction. Of course, it's almost completely outdated now.

Review # 2 was written on 2016-02-25 00:00:00 Lori Zennario This book is very, very, long and highly detailed. Although the writing is readable, the level of detail exceeds even my obsessed curiosity about Israeli history and politics. But I would still give it four stars for the research alone, except that I felt the book was lacking in scholarly objectivity. As I mentioned in an update, calling Golda Meir "the ever-self-righteous prime minister" does not impress me as an impartial statement. Worse, though, are the multiple inflammatory allegations of Israeli misdeeds and abuses of power with only the sparsest of footnotes. With all the research and footnoting everywhere else in the book, shouldn't there be footnotes supporting such damning accusations?
