About this listen

'Come for a walk with me, if you would, along the streets of Jerusalem. My family has walked these streets for more than a thousand years.'

With this invitation, Palestine: A Short History offers a powerful introduction to Palestinian history through a century of conflict and resistance. Blending incisive research with his own family memories, celebrated scholar Rashid Khalidi traces Palestine's story from the British occupation to Israel's ongoing colonial war.

Powerfully explaining the history behind the world's most urgent - and misunderstood - conflict, Khalidi explores why Israel has long fought against Palestine. Engaging and accessible, this book offers everyone a compelling entry point into a century of struggle - and the future of the Palestinian state.©2026 Rashid I. Khalidi (P)2026 Macmillan Audio
