Seller's Description:
Illustrated by Lindroth, David. Poor. 0679720987. "In this ground-breaking and controversial history of the founding of Israel, noted Israeli scholar and peace activist Simha Flapan (1911-1987) gives us the first true account of one of the most momentous political events of the century. Drawing on recently declassified material-from Ben-Gurion's war diaries to the minutes of secret meetings-Flapan reconstructs the real events of that critial time. Eye-opening and bold, full of unsettling revelations, [this book] offers fresh hope for understanding today's tragic Arab-Israeli stalemate, and for moving toward a solution."-back cover. "Offers new insight and understanding that require a serious rethinking of much that has long been believed."-Noam Chomsky. "No one who reads this book can be content with these myths any longer."-Christopher Hitchens. "Nobody will be able to talk about these topics without taking Flapan's radical revision of the mythology into account."-Stanley Hoffman. "Flapan was an Israeli historian and politician who served as National Secretary of the left Zionist Mapam party, and the director of its Arab Affairs department from 1959 to the mid-1970s."-Wikipedia. x, 277 p. Footnotes, index, and black and white maps. Please note that this is not a pretty copy as it bears above-average wear and insect damage to the front cover and first leaf. That said, the binding is intact and the contents unmarked. A worthy reading copy of this highly-regarded and surprisingly rare work.; Maps; Sm 4to.
