Description
Ian Black's comprehensive history of the conflict between Arabs and Jews in Palestine and Israel, 1917-2017, offers a nuanced and balanced perspective on one of the most polarising conflicts of the modern age. Drawing on a wide range of sources, including declassified documents and oral testimonies, Black sheds new light on critical events such as the Arab rebellion of the 1930s, Israel's independence and the Palestinian catastrophe of 1948, and the 1967 war. This book re-examines the origins of the doomed relationship between Arabs and Jews in the Holy Land, tracing the evolution of the conflict over five decades of occupation, ever-expanding Jewish settlements, and the construction of the West Bank 'separation wall'. Black also explores the reality of everyday life on the ground in Jerusalem and Hebron, Tel Aviv, Ramallah, Haifa, and Gaza, for both sides of an unequal struggle. By going beyond the most newsworthy events, Black provides a detailed and insightful account of the conflict, one that captures the complexities and nuances of this long and unresolved struggle.
