In his book "The Hundred Years War on Palestine," Rashid Khalidi reclaims the fundamental right of any people to narrate their history on their own terms, revealing nascent Palestinian nationalism and the broad recognition by early Zionists of the colonial nature of their project. The result is a profoundly moving account of a hundred-year-long war of occupation, dispossession and colonialization.

The New York Times Bestseller, one of the "Five Best Books to Understand the Israel-Palestine Conflict," as chosen by the Guardian. Shortlisted for the 2020 Cundill History Prize. A Granta Book of the Year 2023. This cogent and compelling Palestinian perspective is long overdue. Guardian Riveting and original ... a work enriched by solid scholarship, vivid personal experience, and acute appreciation of the concerns and aspirations of the contending parties in this deeply unequal conflict. Noam Chomsky. The twentieth century for Palestine and the Palestinians has been a century of denial: denial of statehood, denial of nationhood, and denial of history. The Hundred Years War on Palestine is Rashid Khalidi's powerful response. Drawing on his family archives, he reclaims the fundamental right of any people: to narrate their history on their own terms. Beginning in the final days of the Ottoman Empire, Khalidi reveals nascent Palestinian nationalism and the broad recognition by the early Zionists of the colonial nature of their project. These ideas and their echoes defend Nakba - the Palestinian term for the establishment of the state of Israel - the cession of the West Bank and Gaza to Jordan and Egypt, the Six Day War and the occupation. Moving through these critical moments, Khalidi interweaves the voices of journalists, poets, and resistance leaders with his own accounts as a child of a UN official and a resident of Beirut during the 1982 siege. The result is a profoundly moving account of a hundred-year-long war of occupation, dispossession, and colonialization.
