This best-selling history is the first fully comprehensive history of America#xE2;#x80;#x99;s involvement in the Middle East from George Washington to George W. Bush. As Niall Ferguson writes, #xE2;#x80;#x9C;If you think America#xE2;#x80;#x99;s entanglement in the Middle East began with Roosevelt and Truman, Michael Oren#xE2;#x80;#x99;s deeply researched and brilliantly written history will be a revelation to you, as it was to me. With its cast of fascinating characters#xE2;#x80;#x94;earnest missionaries, maverick converts, wide-eyed tourists, and even a nineteenth-century George Bush#xE2;#x80;#x94;Power, Faith, and Fantasy is not only a terrific read, it is also proof that you don#xE2;#x80;#x99;t really understand an issue until you know its history.#xE2;#x80;#x9D;
