In a relatively short time he has done more than most people have thought possible to bring his people toward the benefits of the twentieth century and, more recently, to bring peace to his part of the world. His life started in a village, Mit Abul~Kum, and to this day his own values reflect the basic tenets of villages by the banks of the Nile: loyalty, honor, generosity, and courage. He was a poor boy, and from the beginning it was intelligence and persistence that gained him the education that allowed him to rise in the ranks ofthe army. Much of his mettle and the adult crystallization of his ideals, however, came about during his time of detention by the British during World War II. As it has been for a number of the leaders of the Third World, Sadat's time in prison was a time for reflection, a sharpening of national identity, and an enlarging of intellectual horizons. He was, along with Gamal Abdel Nasser, one of the band of officers who removed the British and overthrew the king. But, unlike many of the men involved in governing the new state, Sadat was more interested in the welfare of his people than in personal power. So, while the power struggle raged, Sadat was on the sidelines, in a sense, until Nasser died and the reins came into his hands. It is quite an amazing event when the head of a state writes his story while he is still in office. It is even more amazing when that story is actually written by the man himself, and when it is honestly told. Here, for the first time and from the inside, are Soviet behavior with Egypt and other Arab countries; the stormy and complex story of relations between Egypt and the United States; portraits of such leaders as Nixon, Brezhnev, Khrushchev, Tito, Qaddafi, and literally dozens of others; the startling story of the October War as planned and waged by Sadat; the even more startling story of Sadat's trip to Israel. In his autobiography Anwar el~Sadat proves himself to be as intellectually courageous as he has proved himself politically and personally courageous in the recent past. The book is self~searching and revealing. It shows, intimately, the evolution of a man until he stands as he is revealed today: a leader of brilliant international stature, unafraid to tackle history head on.
