A History of Modern Palestine:

One Land, Two Peoples

Cambridge University Press, Jul 31, 2006 - History - 361 pages

Ilan Pappe's book traces the history of Palestine from the Ottomans in the nineteenth century, through the British Mandate, the establishment of the state of Israel in 1948, and the subsequent wars and conflicts which have dominated this troubled region. The second edition of Pappe's book has been updated to include the dramatic events of the 1990s and the early twenty-first century. These years, which began with a sense of optimism, as the Oslo peace accord was being negotiated, culminated in the second intifada and the increase of militancy on both sides. Pappe explains the reasons for the failure of Oslo and the two-state solution, and reflects upon life thereafter as the Palestinians and Israelis battle it out under the shadow of the wall of separation. As in the first edition, it is the men, women and children of Palestine who are at the centre of Pappe's narrative.

Review: A History of Modern Palestine: One Land, Two Peoples

User Review - Philip - Goodreads

A good introduction to Palestine but leaves much wanting. Most of all are primary source quotations, which would increase the credibility of his assertions. On a related note, the book covers too much material in too limited a manner, especially about the pre-mandate era. Read full review
