Query: Great book

This book is an excellent contribution to Middle East history from a basic perspective. The writer tells the truth (apparently to the dismay of some). Yes, the Jews were in the Holy Land before the Arabs. Yes, the Jews never left, even after the destruction of the Second Temple.True peace can be achieved only after the conflict, with its attendant claims, is properly understood. I highly recommend this book.
