Publisher's Synopsis
Peace in the Middle East has been a focus for politicians and activists for many years, but deadly conflicts still ravage this region. At the center of this struggle is the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, which has deep historical roots. These roots are presented through objective main text filled with annotated quotes from historians and people who have been affected by this conflict. Featuring sidebars and images from both the past and present, this comprehensive look at a region in constant conflict gives young people a stronger sense of how current events connect to what they've learned in history classes.
