On Nasser's death Sadat took over the presidency, to the surprise and chagrin of his left-wing Soviet-orientated opponents who underestimated his abilities. The book describes how Sadat appeared to dismiss Soviet Army advisers while secretly retaining links with Brezhnev for his own purposes; how he surprised Israel and the Americans by launching the Yom Kippur War of 1973 and, though defeated."

  • "Anwar Sadat's life was shaped by Egypt's national struggle and the conflict between the Arab world and Israel. This biography charts his progress from fanatical nationalist to President of Egypt, and from world statesman to tragic hero, who gave his life in the cause of peace."@en
  • "This is the first major study of President Anwar Sadat by a journalist who came to know him well in the last few years of his life. Joseph Finklestone became intrigued by the unlikely and amazing story of Sadat's rise to power from an uncompromising beginning as a boy born into poverty, a fanatical, histrionic nationalist who spent years in prison. Emerging from prison as both an adventurer and an idealist, Sadat used his coolness and oratory to help Colonel Nasser's."@en
