Description

A major new history of the Arab-Zionist conflict, told from both sides, offers a fresh perspective on one of the most polarizing conflicts of modern times. Ian Black draws on a wide range of sources to illuminate the story of the Middle East, from the late 19th century to the present day. The narrative unfolds through key milestones, including the 1917 Balfour Declaration, the Arab Rebellion of the late 1930s, and the 1967 watershed, as well as the Oslo Accords and ongoing negotiations. Combining engaging narrative with political analysis and social and cultural insights, this book provides both an accessible overview and a fascinating investigation into the deeper truths of a contested history. This book sheds light on the enduring tensions between Palestinians and Israelis, and the ways in which these tensions have shaped the region over the past century.
