This was the time of the British Mandate, when Britain's promise to both Jews and Arabs that they would inherit the land, set in motion the conflict that haunts the region to this day. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDrawing on untapped archival materials, Tom Segev reconstructs an era (1917 to 1948) of limitless possibilities and tragic missteps. He introduces an array unforgettable characters, tracks the steady advance of Jews and Arabs toward confrontation, and puts forth a radical new argument: that the British, far from being pro-Arab, consistently favored the Zionist position, out of the mistaken--and anti-Semitic--belief that Jews turned the wheels of history.","brand":"Picador USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44458392092809,"sku":"9780805065879","price":42.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0376\/3057\/4729\/files\/imageloader_78cdaa81-6ba7-4fc5-83d6-7c31cf52e78a.jpg?v=1780864358","url":"https:\/\/thebookmarkpr.com\/products\/one-palestine-complete","provider":"The Bookmark Books \u0026 Gifts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
