Israel's Wars

Israel's Wars is a fascinating and essential insight into the turbulent history of this troubled country which, since its foundation, has endured and engaged in almost constant violence.

This fifth edition brings the coverage up to date with recent conflicts and is revised throughout, including a new chapter on the 2023 Gaza war, a fresh preface, and an updated final chapter. From the 1947-8 Jewish-Palestinian struggle for control of Palestine, to the Al-Aqsa intifada, the second Lebanon war, and Gaza conflicts, Bregman uncovers previously unknown facts and offers fresh perspectives.

Illustrated throughout with maps and photographs, this new edition is valuable reading for students of Arab-Israeli conflicts over the past eighty years.
