		In 1943, Primo Levi, a twenty-five-year-old chemist and "Italian citizen of Jewish race," was arrested by Italian fascists and deported from his native Turin to Auschwitz.
		In Living History, Herzog takes us back to his childhood in Dublin (his father was Chief Rabbi of Ireland), his school years in Palestine, and his service during World War II, when he was one of the first British soldiers to enter a liberated concentration camp.
		We follow his return to Palestine, a Zionist dedicated to the formation of the State of Israel, a participant in the underground movement, a member of the Israeli Army, and, finally, a statesman serving his people in the highest capacity.
