Oscar Weller betrachtet das Leben von Norman Bentwich, dem ersten Attorney General im britischen Völkerbundsmandat Palästina. Bentwich war ein überzeugter Zionist und gleichzeitig der höchste Rechtsbeamte in der britischen Mandatsverwaltung. Dieser Interessenkonflikt macht Bentwich für die Rechtsgeschichte zu einer spannenden Figur.
