Abstract
"The reader wiil be in for a considerable shock.Karsh proves over and over that the leading new historians-Benny Morris and Avi Shlaim, in particular, with a few barbs reserved for IIan Pappe and several other distinguished personalities-are not historians at all.At best they are propagandists.
Description
Israeli historiography is under assault by "new historians" exposing "Zionist narrative". This text takes issue with these "revisionists", arguing that they have ignored or misinterpreted much documentation in developing their analysis of Israel's history. - from Amzon
