Jean-Pierre Lévy’s love affair with Israel began in 1962 and lasts to this day. In his book, the former marketing executive, Harvard alumnus, and war veteran discusses Israel, the “gigantic, small country,” while directing his words to those who are too often unaware of what the Holocaust was and know little about the toils of the only Jewish state. In a relationship that is both historical and educational, the author presents them with Israel’s greatest achievements. A man of dialogue, he also endeavors to offer this book as a message of peace to Holocaust deniers and anti-Zionists.

Trained in marketing at HEC and then at Harvard business school, Jean-Pierre Lévy works tirelessly to raise Israel’s profile across the globe. As a member of the French Committee for Yad Vashem, he helps preserve the memory of the victims of the Holocaust throughout France and Europe.
