This book is an exploration of the history and ideology of
Revisionist Zionism--the stream of Zionism represented by the
ruling Likud Party in Israel--from its inception in the 1920s under
Vladimir Ze'ev Jabotinsky, to its modification under Herut Party
leader Menahem Begin and up until the present. After a chapter that
discusses the main features of Revisionist Zionism under Jabotinsky
each of the four Likud Party leaders receives two or three
chapters, with the first (and second in Begin's case) discussing
their early life, early career in the party and rise to party
leadership. The final chapter of each leader's biography discusses
his period as party leader and prime minister as well as his legacy
both for the party and for Israel. A highlight is a lengthy
overview of the underground careers of both Menahem Begin as leader
of the Irgun Zvai Leumi paramilitary organization and Yitzhak
Shamir as leader of the Lohemei Herut Israel (Stern Group)
paramilitary organization, both in the 1940s. A conclusion looks at
the common characteristics that the five leaders share and how the
party may evolve in the future.
