A journalist in Israel accused, in the early 1950s, Rudolf Kastner of collaborating with the Nazis in the killing of 1 million Hungarian Jews and the Israeli government sued him for libel. This book is the story of that case. Hecht portrays many of Israel's leaders as placating the British. American Jews incorrectly called an offer by Eichmann to trade Hungarian Jews for Trucks and other material as false causing the American help to flounder.
