Israel's Wars, 1947-93

During the twentieth century Israel has achieved notoriety, witnessing almost constant conflict and violence. Drawing on his considerable experience as a historian, journalist and soldier, Ahron Bregman offers a masterly account of Israel's wars with the Palestinians and the Arabs. From the 1947-8 Jewish-Palestinian struggle for the possession and mastery of the land of Palestine, through Israel's wars with its Arab neighbours, to the Intifada between 1987 and 1993, this book unearths new insights and exposes secrets never previously published.

Ahron Bregman is a Lecturer in History at Webster University, London
