Peter Mansfield (Author)
Richard Brown (Narrator)

For more than four thousand years, the Middle East has provided a setting for titanic struggles between great civilizations and religions. In the twentieth century it became the focus of rivalry between the European powers as the last major Islamic empire of the Ottoman Turks crumbled and collapsed. The discovery of the world’s greatest oil reserves gave the region global economic importance as well as a unique strategic value. In this masterly work of synthesis, Peter Mansfield draws on his experience as a journalist and historian to form a picture of the political and social history of the meeting point of Occident and Orient over the last two centuries, from Bonaparte’s marauding invasion of Egypt to the start of the Gulf War. In two penetrating final chapters, Peter Mansfield discusses Saddam Hussein and the prospects for the future.

Peter Mansfield (1928-1996) was born in Ranchi, India and was educated at Winchester and Cambridge. For over thirty years, he wrote and broadcasted about the contemporary affairs and history of the Middle East, corresponding regularly for the Financial Times, Economist, and London Sunday Times. His books include Who’s Who in the Arab World and The Arabs.

This book does not cover ANY of Middle Eastern history regarding Arab colonization and ethnic cleansing of the Zoastrian Jews and other indigenous groups. A huge amount of the book is given to the modern Israeli/Arab conflict and does so from a very slanted pro-Arab view leaving out many facts and inserting allot of opinion. It does not cover the non Arab states history very deeply ( Israel, Iran and Turkey etc) and it glosses over many historical facts of genocide committed by Arabs or any actions that may create a less than favorable view of part of arab history.

The author incorrectly assumes many things and states them as matter of fact such as the assumption that Israel is capable of “defending US interests”. Israel cannot and public opinion would never allow Israel to defend any other countries needs even if Israel had the strength.

I cannot stress enough that this book is egregiously unbalanced slanted towards Arabs.

Wow, based on your review this sounds like an excellent book! Gee why would Israel, which has received over $100 Billion dollars from the US, more than any other country, have any reason to “defend US interests.” No, they would have no reason to do so. None at all.

A very factual and interesting book. No wonder it’s hated books amongst the zionists, but definitely worth reading or listening to in this case

Zionism is “hugely slanted” towards Western Colonialism. It is just a retelling of Cowboys versus Indians. I prefer to hear about the Indians without any comments by the Cowboys, for once.

Ah yes, a country with nuclear weapons and some of the most advanced weaponry “cannot defend itself”. Sure, Pluni, SURE.

@Ploni That’s because they are covering history not non fiction, or zionist propaganda.

Meant they aren’t covering fiction, but you get the idea.
