Warriors of God: Inside Hezbollah's Thirty-Year Struggle Against Israel by Nicholas Blanford

---

Kinetic, propulsive, intimate. "Warriors of God" is not a bird's eye but that of the ground, of a man with relationships with the key players to get a story full of day-to-day minute details and internal conflicts that drive any grand decades-long political movement. Chronicling all the facets with a personal touch (an amazing opening line here!) that makes it worth reading even beyond the information.
