Summary

"Shimon Peres' final work, finished shortly before his death. An autobiography and study of the crucial moments in Israel's history. "It would be easy to review what elapsed during my 93 years purely for nostalgic value. But here, in the final chapter of my life, I am not interested in simply putting a marker down regarding my specific recall of the past. Instead, I am writing a book about what it takes to fight cynicism in all of its forms, and what it takes to follow dreams no matter their size.""--, Provided by publisher
