The al-Khalidi family has walked the streets of Jerusalem for more than a thousand years. Now, celebrated scholar Rashid Khalidi draws on his family story and his own experiences to offer a powerful, accessible introduction to the history of the Palestinian people and their land.From the relative stability of the Ottoman Empire to the Balfour Declaration of 1917 and Israel’s ongoing colonial war – and offering insights into the future of Palestine – Palestine: A Short History is a compelling entry point into a century of conflict and resistance.Through Khalidi’s eyes, you will encounter the beautiful, ancient, living land of Palestine and gain a better understanding of what is happening there today, as well as the background to the world’s most urgent – and misunderstood – conflict.
