Amy Dockser Marcus- "Jerusalem 1913" Book Signing May 3, 2007

A Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist examines the genesis of one of the greatest political struggles of our time.

Searching for the origins of the Arab-Israeli conflict, historians for years focused on the British Mandate period (1920-1948). Amy Dockser Marcus, however, demonstrates that the bloody struggle for power actually started much earlier, when Jerusalem was still part of the Ottoman Empire and the rise of Zionism and Arab nationalism laid the groundwork for the battles that would continue to rage nearly a century later.
