Arabs & Israelis

223 pp. "In the aftermath of the Octobre, 1973 War, the possibility of a genuine dialogue between Arabs and Israelis finally emerged. Originally conducted in 1974, and updated with 1975 postscripts by each participant, the discussions which comprise this book were hailed upon their French publication as a unique and important contribution to international understanding. Speaking clearly as individuals and not as official spokesmen for any government, the participants move well beyond the specific bartering that occupies current headlines to examine the roots of the conflict and convey what each feels to be the historic Israeli and Arab claims to disputed lands."
