Palestine is one of the most contested pieces of land on earth, and its history extends far back before the modern conflict. This book traces the history of the region from ancient times through the biblical period, the Roman conquest, the Arab and Ottoman centuries, the British Mandate, and the modern era of displacement, war, and occupation.
Drawing on historical scholarship and archaeological evidence, the book provides a factual account of how the region has been inhabited, conquered, and transformed across thousands of years. It gives particular attention to the twentieth century, covering the Nakba of 1948, the formation of Palestinian political identity, the various peace processes, and the ongoing situation in Gaza and the West Bank. It is written without ideological agenda and is aimed at readers who want historical grounding rather than polemic.
Contents:
