Signed, inscribed, and flamboyantly illustrated in spy vs. spy motif by Victor Ostrovsky upon half-title and verso of front free endpaper. "I was elated when I was chosen and granted the privilege to join what I considered to be the elite team of the Mossad. But it was the twisted ideals and self-centered pragmatism that I encountered inside the Mossad, coupled with this so-called team's greed, lust and total lack of respect for human life, that motivated me to tell this story. It is out of love for Israel as a free and just country that I am laying my life on the line by so doing, facing up to those who took it upon themselves to turn the Zionist Dream into the present-day nightmare." - Victor Ostrovsky. "Ostrovsky was born in Canada of an Israeli mother and Canadian Jewish father but spent most of his formative years in Holon, Israel. He became at age 18 the youngest officer in the Israeli military. A weapons-testing expert, he was recruited by the Mossad and completed their extensive training program, becoming a katsa, or case officer, only to grow disillusioned with the organization's aims and operations and return to Canada." - dust jacket. The only Canadian nonfiction book to reach number one on the New York Times Bestseller List. "In 1990 Israel tried to stop the sale of this book. This was the first (and, to date, only) attempt of a sovereign state to stop a book from being published in the United States." - Wikipedia. xii, 371 pages. Glossary. Index. Organizational Charts and documents. Average wear to book which bears remainder dot to bottom edge and ink underlining and occasional brief marginalia to about 38 pages. Somewhat above-average general soiling. Average wear to dust jacket now preserved in archival-grade Brodart. A special copy of this shocking expose. ; 8vo; Signed by Author.
