Description

New York: W.W. Norton & Company, 2007. 3rd Printing. Hard Cover. Very Good/Very Good. 6x1x9. Third printing. Minor chips at jacket corners, jacket spine head bumped. 2007 Hard Cover. xxii, 778 pp. This best-selling history is the first fully comprehensive history of America's involvement in the Middle East from George Washington to George W. Bush. As Niall Ferguson writes, 'If you think America's entanglement in the Middle East began with Roosevelt and Truman, Michael Oren's deeply researched and brilliantly written history will be a revelation to you, as it was to me. With its cast of fascinating characters—earnest missionaries, maverick converts, wide-eyed tourists, and even a nineteenth-century George Bush—Power, Faith, and Fantasy is not only a terrific read, it is also proof that you don't really understand an issue until you know its history.' 68 black-and-white photographs, 4 maps.
