520 Enemies and Neighbors is a big, textured, and, crucially,
balanced account of over 100 years of the Israel-Palestine
conflict, published on the 100th anniversary of the
Balfour Declaration (the famous pledge made by the British
government on Nov. 2, 1917 expressing sympathy for a
national Jewish home in Palestine). 2017 also marks the
50th anniversary of the Six-Day War in June 1967, during
which Israel seized its current borders. Much of the
existing literature on the Israel-Palestine conflict
focuses on the era post-Israeli independence (starting in
1948), has a clear bias, and/or comes at the subject from
an academic angle. This is a major, engagingly written
trade history covering the entire arc of the conflict up
to the present, and Black has done an extraordinary job of
telling it from both sides.
