Unstrung: Rants and Stories of a Noise Guitarist
The paperback edition of iconoclastic guitar player Marc Ribot’s darkly funny and subversive collection of writing, featuring brand-new essays not included in the hardcover. “A slim yet powerful book in which Marc Ribot blends bits of memoir with strange little fictions, many of which are based on his own life and career.” —Wall Street Journal Throughout his genre-defying career as one of the most innovative musicians of our time, iconoclastic guitar player Marc Ribot has consistently defied expectation at every turn. Here, in the expanded paperback edition of Ribot’s first collection of writing, we see that same uncompromising sensibility at work as he playfully interrogates our a...

Rabin served as army chief-of-staff, ambassador to the United States, and finally as prime minister.
Rabin
Twenty years after that grave night of November 4, 1995, when Israel's prime minister Yitzhak Rabin was felled by an Israeli assassin's bullets, Robert Slater goes back to once again explore the man, politician and leader – a leader whose personal history paralleled that of his country, a onetime warrior that became a peacemaker. As the life of Yitzhak Rabin unfolds, the story of Israel is told: Rabin was the first native-born prime minister, the first to be born in the twentieth century, the first to be educated entirely in the country and the first to emerge from the army, bringing an altogether different tone to Israel's leadership. In his life he had been a bland, unexciting figure, wh...
Yitzhak Rabin
An insider’s perspective on the life and influence of Israel’s first native-born prime minister, his bold peace initiatives, and his tragic assassination More than two decades have passed since prime minister Yitzhak Rabin’s assassination in 1995, yet he remains an unusually intriguing and admired modern leader. A native-born Israeli, Rabin became an inextricable part of his nation’s pre-state history and subsequent evolution. This revealing account of his life, character, and contributions draws not only on original research but also on the author’s recollections as one of Rabin’s closest aides. An awkward politician who became a statesman, a soldier who became a peacemaker, Rab...
Rabin
"Beginning with the brutal murder of her husband before her eyes, Leah Rabin recounts in clear-sighted detail the events of her forty-eight years with Rabin, from their dramatic courtship during service in the Palmach, the elite strike force of the underground Jewish army, to their marriage during the 1948 War of Independence; from his ascent as a brilliant military tactician and his role as chief of staff of Israel's armed forces during the breathtaking victories of the 1967 Six Day War, to his entry into political life, first as Israeli ambassador to the United States, then as cabinet minister to Golda Meir after the Yom Kippur War, and later as Israel's sixth and then youngest prime minister in 1974."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Killing a King: The Assassination of Yitzhak Rabin and the Remaking of Israel
Winner of the Los Angeles Times Book Prize in History and one of the New York Times’s 100 Notable Books of the Year. The assassination of Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin remains the single most consequential event in Israel’s recent history, and one that fundamentally altered the trajectory for both Israel and the Palestinians. In Killing a King, Dan Ephron relates the parallel stories of Rabin and his stalker, Yigal Amir, over the two years leading up to the assassination, as one of them planned political deals he hoped would lead to peace, and the other plotted murder. "Carefully reported, clearly presented, concise and gripping," It stands as "a reminder that what happened on a Tel Aviv sidewalk 20 years ago is as important to understanding Israel as any of its wars" (Matti Friedman, The Washington Post).
