Set in the first decade of modern Israel's existence, this volume
offers an insightful look at the changing relationship of American
Jews and the reborn Jewish nation/state. It is the first in-depth
analysis of the subject during this key period. As the Cold War
rages, leaders in all camps are shown attempting to shape and
control the tangled circumstances that engulf them - especially
American Jewish Committee president Jacob Blaustein, Israeli
founding father David Ben-Gurion, and American presidents Harry S.
Truman and Dwight D. Eisenhower. Tapping into private
correspondence, diaries, oral history interviews, scholarly
literature and other archival materials, Zvi Ganin provides a
richly detailed look at motivations, passions, and attitudes of
Jewish and Israeli leaders on numerous issues - none more affecting
than in the stormy debate over dual loyalty.
