What Happened in Palestine (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781026082836)

"What Happened in Palestine" provides a compelling first-hand account and rigorous analysis of the 1929 riots in Mandatory Palestine. Written by the noted author Maurice Samuel shortly after the events occurred, this work captures a critical turning point in the history of the Zionist movement and the escalating tensions between Jewish and Arab populations under British rule.

Samuel delves into the underlying causes of the violence, examining the socio-political climate, the role of the British administration, and the disputes surrounding the Western Wall. The book offers a detailed look at the challenges facing the Jewish national home during the early 20th century, blending journalistic observation with a deep understanding of the ideological struggles of the era.

As an important historical document, "What Happened in Palestine" sheds light on the complexities of the British Mandate and the foundational issues of the regional conflict. It remains a significant resource for readers interested in Middle Eastern history, the development of modern Israel, and the historical dynamics that continue to influence international relations today.
