Synopsis
Rashid Khalidi examines the long and often frustrating struggle of the Palestinian people to establish their own state. This book traces the history from the era of British control between the World Wars, through the critical period after WWII, and up to the present day. Khalidi offers a clear-eyed view of the reasons behind past failures and provides essential context for understanding the ongoing conflict in the Middle East.
