Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Writing dispassionately about the Holy Land, said Mark Twain, is as hard as being dispassionate about your own wife or children. Today, more than a century after Twain led the way for mass tourism to what was then a remote corner of the Ottoman Empire, the difficulties are redoubled.;The modern struggles of the Israelis and Palestinians - with their larger-than-life stories of disaster and redemption - command the obsessive attention and passion of sympathizers around the world. The 1993 Oslo accords promised to end more than a century of conflict between Jews and Arabs, but the Palestinian uprising that began in October 2000 has raised fears that the fighting could destabilize the whole region.;With the experienced journalist's eye for the telling detail and anecdote, Anton La Guardia offers an intimate portrait of the people behind the headlines. He explores their histories and cultures: from the religious upheavals of Jerusalem to the extremism of Jewish settlers and Islamic suicide bombers, from the first Zionist pioneers to the post-Zionist generation in Tel Aviv, from the stirrings of Arab nationalism to the Lebanon War.; The author explains how the searing traumas of the Holocaust and the Palestinian exodus have shaped Israeli and Palestinian societies. He also looks at the role of the outside world, from the awe-struck visits of medieval Christian pilgrims to the scheming of world powers. He traces how the promise of peace has turned into the curse of war, drawing on his reporter's notebooks from years spent covering the peace accords, Islamic suicide bombings, the assassination of the Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin and the outbreak of the latest Palestinian uprising. This book is part contemporary political reportage and part iconoclastic history. A dispassionate account of Israel and Palestine may be impossible, but this book is written with the first-hand knowledge, affection and exasperation of one who writes about embittered relatives. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. 1st Edition. As new condition black boards with copper spine lettering contained in an as new condition non price-clipped color photographic dust jacket. Includes Author Dedication and Quote from Song of Solomon; List of Illustrations; Preface; Foreword to American Edition; Maps; Epilogue; Chronology; Bibliography; and Index. Illustrated with a section of black-and-white photographic plates plus some preliminary page maps. This is the First U.S. Edition, First Printing, May 2002 as stated in the copyright page. "The struggles of the Israelis and Palestinians - with their terrible histories of disaster and redemption - command the obsessive attention of the world. Statesmen tinker with peace plans for the Middle East and generals worry about future wars there. Religious leaders stoke the violent passions of the devout while pilgrims flock to find God and archaeologists dig to find the origins of His revelations. All this goes on under the watchful eye of an army of reporters, observers, diplomatic envoys, and aid workers. Between the Mediterranean and the Jordan River, dreams and ideals collide with the reality of violent nationalist struggle, and God's name is invoked in defense of the jealousies of men. With the experienced journalist's eye for irony, anecdote, and telling detail, Anton La Guardia traces how the promise of peace has turned into the curse of war. A classic in the making, War Without End is the definitive book on Israel and her people." - from the inner front jacket flap. "In War Without End, La Guardia has produced a triumph. It is a work that suggests a sophisticated understanding of both the Israeli and Palestinian streets and power centers. It is, moreover, an essential handbook for foreign correspondents and others who aspire to instant expertise on a subject as complex and intractable as the Arab-Israeli conflict." - The Jerusalem Post. War Without End is an excellent piece of dispassionate reportage, stuffed with information and useful pointers, part history, part social commentary." - Jewish Chronicle. "Most of the recent outstanding books about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict have been either academic, from Israeli historians such as Benny Morris, or works of fine writing from authors such as David Grossman. The best by a reporter was generally thought to be Thomas Friedman's From Beirut to Jerusalem, but that was. years ago and many of its judgments were glib. La Guardia . has produced a better book, combining history and news reporting." - The Guardian (U.K.).
