Reviews
Of all the countries in the bewildering Middle East, surely the most difficult to comprehend must be Lebanon...Half the battle of understanding Lebanon is merely being able to tell who's who among the contending parties. Mackey...helps us meet this challenge by offering lucid, dramatic histories of the peoples of Lebanon., Highly recommended...[Mackey] warns that the West's habit of ignoring issues that inflame the Islamic world until they hit home only fuels Arab anger. Lebanon, she believes, is not only a catastrophe deserving attention in its own right, but also a portent of what could happen throughout the Middle East., For those who seek an understanding of Lebanon behind the head-lines and the two-minute news summaries, this will be a very helpful book.

Synopsis
With the West's economic and security interests increasingly at stake in the Middle East, it is impossible to ignore Lebanon--a nation in all ways divided and tormented by the interplay between the West and the Arab world. Sandra Mackey delineates the multifarious culture that is Lebanon; carefully stripping away the complex stigmas of Lebanese politics, she brings each component into focus, priming readers on the conflicts between Sunni and Shia, Maronites and Druze, Christian and Muslim, Israel and the Palestinian Liberation Organization, Lebanon and Palestine, and Syria and Lebanon. Covering Lebanon's history through the civil war of 197589, and with a new introduction on recent developments, Mackey lays the groundwork needed to comprehend this often ill-understood country--offering insight into its role as the gateway between West and East, and bringing clarity of focus to the schisms that serve to divide and define Lebanon., Covering Lebanon's history through the civil war of 1975-89, and with a new introduction on recent developments, Mackey lays the groundwork needed to comprehend this often ill-understood country--offering insight into its role as the gateway between West and East, and bringing clarity of focus to the schisms that serve to divide and define Lebanon., Covering Lebanon's history through the Civil War of 1975--89, Sandra Mackey lays the groundwork needed to comprehend this often ill-understood country--offering insight into its role as the gateway between West and East, and bringing a clarity of focus to the schisms that serve to divide and define Lebanon., "A beautifully written, often profound account." --Chicago Sun-Times With a new introduction by the author, a seminal study of Lebanon's past, present, and future., "Of all the countries in the bewildering Middle East, surely the most difficult to comprehend must be Lebanon. . . .
