A review by booksandchicks
The Haj by Leon Uris

3.0

3.5 stars. And props to me for finishing it! I found the book fascinating then it got a little laborious as it explained the history then fascinating again, I think part of the problem for me was I know so little of the Arab conflicts in general. This book covered 1946-1956 in Palestine/Jerusalem between he Jews and Palestinians. I'm well aware of the culture, but the history amazes me at the dangers that pride allows. I do recommend to those stalwart historical fiction readers. I'm so glad a I read it, but I'm also glad I'm done reading it.
