Select Format
Select Condition 
Book Overview
A powerful account, by Israeli peace activist Miko Peled, of his transformation from a young man who'd grown up in the heart of Israel's elite and served proudly in its military into a fearless advocate of nonviolent struggle and equal rights for all Palestinians and Israelis. His journey is mirrored in many ways the transformation his father, a much-decorated Israeli general, had undergone three decades earlier. Alice Walker contributed a foreword to the first edition in which she wrote, "There are few books on the Israel/Palestine issue that seem as hopeful to me as this one." In the new Epilogue he takes readers to South Africa, East Asia, several European countries, and the West Bank, Gaza, and Israel itself.

The Generals Son
Published by Ben , 2 months ago
This book has a unique perspective, as the title implies, Miko is Israeli born and the son of a very famous Israeli general. It is a fascinating read as it intertwines personal experiences and family history, with that of Israel and Palestine. I recommend it for anyone with interest in the topic whether you are just becoming familiar or have read many books on it prior.
