Reviews
"In November 1917, the British government stated that it would "view with favour the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people." It was, in retrospect, a startlingly brief statement, which received little attention at the time. Since then, Zionists have regarded it as a declaration of the Jewish right to create an independent Jewish state; for Arabs, it is viewed as an outrageous case of imperialist manipulation and betrayal. Schneer writes a fascinating and scrupulously balanced account of the events and intense maneuvers that led to the issuance of the declaration. He superbly navigates between the various conflicting interests and lobbying efforts of Zionists, Arabs, and opposing elements within the British government. There are no heroes here; one is left with the impression that the Zionists "won" simply because they were more relentless and ruthless than their opposition, which included many non-Zionist Jews."-Booklist, "In November 1917, the British government stated that it would "view with favour the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people."

Synopsis
With new material retrieved from historical archives, scholar Schneer recounts in dramatic detail the public and private battles in the early 1900s for a small strip of land in the Middle East. He paints an indelible picture of how Arab nationalists, backed by Britain, fought for their future as Zionists in England battled diplomatically for influence.
