The Revolt,
Dramatic Inside Story of the Irgun, is a book about the militant Zionist
organization Irgun Zvai Leumi, by one of its principal leaders,
Menachem Begin. In Israel, the organization is commonly called Etzel,
based on its Hebrew acronym.
The book traces the development of
the Irgun from its early days in the 1930s, through its years of violent
struggle in the Palestine Mandate against both British rule (the
"revolt" of the title) and Arab opposition, to the outbreak of the
Israeli War of Independence in 1948. The book is also part
autobiographical, tracing Begin's own political development.
