If it hadn't been for Eichmann's son Klaus' indiscete comments to a girlfriend who unbeknownst to him happened to be half Jewish, the Israelis may never have captured the chief technician of the Holocaust. Since the Eichmann family had been living quietly undisturbed in Argentina for 15 years, son Klaus must have been confident that his father would never be detected. Once the Israelis got onto Eichmann they held on tenaciously tracking first his exact whereabouts, his assumed name, his certain identity, and formulating an audacious plan to snatch Eichmann on his way home from work, literally smuggling him out of Argentina to Israel. There he famously stood trial in a bullet proof booth for his crimes against humanity.What a story! The author of the new forward to the book discloses that PM David Ben Gurion instructed Mossad chief Harel to write the book in order to commemorate Israel's stunning achievement in bringing Eichmann to justice by the people whom he tried to eradicate from existence. Written in 1965, the story was not first published for another ten years in 1975. Although Harel writes in a dry fashion, his voice is the correct one to expose the almost unbearably tense operation to capture Eichmann. If Harel had been a more thrilling author, I am not sure I could have withstood the suspense of reading the story. The tone also fits the idea of the book which is that the reader is sitting front row center for a personal view of the absolute facts of Mossad's plot. The story reads like "Dragnet" on steroids. Isser Harel stars as an Israeli Joe Friday.The revised book improves the initial publication by giving all of the facts including the true names of the Mossad agents twenty years after the original publication. The preliminary maps and cast of characters also aid the reader in keeping track of those involved, especially the Israeli names, which I could have gotten lost in many times. A great read and a testament to Israel's determination to avenge its people.
