A review by bookghoul
The Hundred Years' War on Palestine by Rashid Khalidi

challenging dark informative reflective sad tense medium-paced

5.0

If you read one book this year, make it tjis one. It is harrowing, illuminating and puts in perspective a nuanced image of a century of wars, the forces of colonialism and oppression of a people. Khalidi doesn't only provide a fair view of the oppressor, but also puts a stark eye on the mistakes of the other side. Depressing, but important.
