Download or read book My Promised Land written by Ari Shavit and published by Random House. This book was released on 2013-11-19 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW AND THE ECONOMIST Winner of the Natan Book Award, the National Jewish Book Award, and the Anisfield-Wolf Book Award An authoritative and deeply personal narrative history of the State of Israel, by one of the most influential journalists writing about the Middle East today Not since Thomas L. Friedman’s groundbreaking From Beirut to Jerusalem has a book captured the essence and the beating heart of the Middle East as keenly and dynamically as My Promised Land. Facing unprecedented internal and external pressures, Israel today is at a moment of existential crisis. Ari Shavit draws on interviews, historical documents, private diaries, and letters, as well as his own family’s story, illuminating the pivotal moments of the Zionist century to tell a riveting narrative that is larger than the sum of its parts: both personal and national, both deeply human and of profound historical dimension. We meet Shavit’s great-grandfather, a British Zionist who in 1897 visited the Holy Land on a Thomas Cook tour and understood that it was the way of the future for his people; the idealist young farmer who bought land from his Arab neighbor in the 1920s to grow the Jaffa oranges that would create Palestine’s booming economy; the visionary youth group leader who, in the 1940s, transformed Masada from the neglected ruins of an extremist sect into a powerful symbol for Zionism; the Palestinian who as a young man in 1948 was driven with his family from his home during the expulsion from Lydda; the immigrant orphans of Europe’s Holocaust, who took on menial work and focused on raising their children to become the leaders of the new state; the pragmatic engineer who was instrumental in developing Israel’s nuclear program in the 1960s, in the only interview he ever gave; the zealous religious Zionists who started the settler movement in the 1970s; the dot-com entrepreneurs and young men and women behind Tel-Aviv’s booming club scene; and today’s architects of Israel’s foreign policy with Iran, whose nuclear threat looms ominously over the tiny country. As it examines the complexities and contradictions of the Israeli condition, My Promised Land asks difficult but important questions: Why did Israel come to be? How did it come to be? Can Israel survive? Culminating with an analysis of the issues and threats that Israel is currently facing, My Promised Land uses the defining events of the past to shed new light on the present. The result is a landmark portrait of a small, vibrant country living on the edge, whose identity and presence play a crucial role in today’s global political landscape. Praise for My Promised Land “This book will sweep you up in its narrative force and not let go of you until it is done. [Shavit’s] accomplishment is so unlikely, so total . . . that it makes you believe anything is possible, even, God help us, peace in the Middle East.”—Simon Schama, Financial Times “[A] must-read book.”—Thomas L. Friedman, The New York Times “Important and powerful . . . the least tendentious book about Israel I have ever read.”—Leon Wieseltier, The New York Times Book Review “Spellbinding . . . Shavit’s prophetic voice carries lessons that all sides need to hear.”—The Economist “One of the most nuanced and challenging books written on Israel in years.”—The Wall Street Journal

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book about the Land of Israel, a tiny country that is hard even to find on a world map. Despite its size, this land has always been a focal point in world history and has attracted innumerable battles in the quest for global dominance. The present population of this country traces its origins from about 1800 BCE when a nomad called Abram moved here from present-day Iraq and made an eternal alliance with the Lord. His name was changed to Abraham, and the Lord promised him that his descendants would inherit this land forever and that they would change the course of history.This is how the Biblical history of Israel started. The area was called Canaan by its original inhabitants, who were almost identical to Abraham in their language and general culture but, unlike him, had remained polytheist. Abraham's sons, Isaak and Ishmael, and his twin grandsons, Jacob and Esau, are believed to be the forefathers of the two local peoples - the Jews and the Arabs. Four hundred years after Abraham, his descendants, who were already called Bnei Israel ("Sons of Israel", after the name Israel that had been given to Jacob), returned to this land from their Egyptian exile. They recaptured it from the heathen Canaanites and called their new home Eretz Israel ("the Land of Israel"). Over the course of the next 3,800 years, the country's name changed again several times. It was called Judea, Palestine, Outremer, the Holy Land, the Promised Land, and finally, the State of Israel and the Palestinian Authority. But its population, the descendants of Abraham, has always stayed more or less the same: the Jews and the Arabs.The issue is that this country - its geographical borders, its ethnicity, its religions, and even its enemies - has stayed largely the same for thousands of years. All of this creates a unique situation in which the history of the Holy Land endlessly repeats itself in a series of complex, overlapping circles. It is like a labyrinth, where you always come to the same wrong places until you find the proper path to the exit. For those who believe in the Lord, whether they call him Jesus, Allah, or simply God, the exit is marked with the sign of the Last Days or Armageddon. For non-believers, each new layer of history serves as the basis for the next spiral of repetition. Whose attitude is correct is not for us to decide. In either case, these recurring changes create a very strange and highly troubling picture.In this book, I present that picture through the prism of the region's military conflicts over the last 2,000 years. I've chosen to concentrate on such clashes because each of them has brought about a major turn in local history. By examining the accounts of these military conflicts, it is easier to understand the overall historical path of the country. New paths in the labyrinth of history will continue to be forged until an exit is found... or not. Who knows, maybe a real answer does exist to that eternal question from the old Arab about why everybody always fights for this place.
