1. In Search Of Identity
A candid political memoir that follows his rise from a modest rural childhood through military service and participation in the 1952 revolution to the presidency, recounting alliances and disputes with fellow leaders, the 1973 war, and the consequential push toward peace with Israel; interwoven with personal recollections, the narrative reflects on Egyptian and Arab identity, the dilemmas of modernization and economic reform, and the burdens and moral choices of national leadership.
