From 1949 to 2000, Moshe Dayan, Yitzhak Rabin, Ariel Sharon, and
Ehud Barak negotiated Israel's successful (and unsuccessful) talks
with its Arab neighbors, from the armistice negotiations to
Kissinger's shuttle diplomacy, to Camp David I and the
Egyptian-Israeli peace treaty, and finally the Oslo peace process.
The stories of the four successful generals who became politicians
are told in four separate biographies, covering the early life and
military career of each subject, and his subsequent political
career. Two other military politicians - Yigal Allon and Ezer
Weizman - are covered within these four biographies. An overview of
the phenomenon of military politicians in Israel is given and an
appendix compares it with similar experiences in South Africa and
the United States.
