War Without End: Israelis, Palestinians, and the Struggle for a Promised Land

Anton La Guardia, Anton Guardia. Thomas Dunne Books, $25.95 (384pp) ISBN 978-0-312-27669-0

British journalist Anton La Guardia, diplomatic editor for the Daily Telegraph and for eight years its Middle East correspondent, offers an informed and objective history of the Middle East battles in War Without End: Israelis, Palestinians, and the Struggle for a Promised Land. Tracing the Zionist movement back to its 19th-century roots, as well as the birth of national identity of the Palestinians among whom the Zionists settled, La Guardia offers general readers a balanced background to what many fear may well be a war without end.
