Much of the existing literature on the Israel-Palestine conflict focuses on the era post-Israeli independence (starting in 1948), has a clear bias, and/or comes at the subject from an academic angle. This is a major, engagingly written trade history covering the entire arc of the conflict up to the present, and Black has done an extraordinary job of telling it from both sides. 0aJewish-Arab relationsxHistory. 4aRelaciones Judío-ArabesxHistoria 0aArab-Israeli conflict. 4aConflicto árabe-israelí 0aPalestinian ArabsxPolitics and government. 4aArabes-palestinos xPolítica y gobierno 08iOnline version:aBlack, Ian, 1953- author.tEnemies and neighborsdNew York : Atlantic Monthly Press, an imprint of Grove Atlantic, 2017z9780802188793w(DLC) 2017048428
