520 |a No other type of book can compare to an Israeli autobiography for bearing witness to the events that have shaped the history of the Jewish people in the last century. Yissakhar Ben-Yaacovs memoirs are an outstanding example. In A Lasting Reward, the author describes his life in detail, covering many exciting events - both well-known and not so well-known - events that span several decades and continents. A native of Germany, Ben-Yaacov served as a representative of Israel's Foreign Ministry for almost forty years, where he fulfilled a wide range of positions. His insightful descriptions of the inner workings of the Foreign Ministry, the calling of an Israeli diplomat, and the interplay between his private life and public activities create an emotional reading experience that will move and inspire the reader.
