Robert Fisk - Pity The Nation Lebanon At War

Written by one of Britain's foremost journalists, this remarkable book combines war reporting and political analysis in an unprecedented way: it is an epic account of the Lebanon conflict by an author who has personally witnessed the carnage of Beirut for over two decades. Fisk's book recounts the details of a terrible war but it also tells a story of betrayal and illusion, of Western blindness that has led inevitably to political and military catastrophe. Fully updated and revised for the third edition, Fisk brings us up to date with a devastating account of Isracl's massacre at Qana.
