Trade Review

"Paul Keleman provides many answers in this revelatory and investigative book."

I found it profoundly illuminating.

an excellent job in tracing the development of the approach to Zionism on the Left in Britain and his work deserves to be widely read

'invaluable'

‘It is not often that a book can be classed as indispensable to an understanding of Zionism - the ideology of the movement that established the Israeli state - and its relationship to the left and the labour movement. But The British left and Zionism is one.’
Tony Greenstein, Weekly Worker, 24th March 2019
