The Revolt: The Story of the Irgun.

English edition of Begin's classic first book. Octavo, original cloth, frontispiece, illustrated. Presentation copy, inscribed by the author on the title page, "To Mr. Vidal Sassoon with my best wishes M. Begin." The recipient, Vidal Sassoon was a British hairstylist and entrepreneur who revolutionized modern hairdressing through his emphasis on geometric precision, simplicity, and wash-and-wear styling. Emerging in London during the 1950s and 1960s, Sassoon rejected the heavily sprayed, sculptural hairstyles of the period and instead introduced sharply cut, architecturally inspired designs such as the five-point cut and the bob, which complemented the emerging aesthetics of modern fashion. His work became closely associated with the cultural shifts of the Swinging London era and the rise of youth-oriented style. Near fine in a very good dust jacket with chipping. Translated from the Hebrew by Shmuel Katz. Edited by Ivan M. Greenberg.
