Once Upon a Country: A Palestinian LIfe
written by Sari Nusseibeh, with Anthony David

A teacher, a scholar, a philosopher, and an eyewitness to history, Sari Nusseibeh is one of the most urgent and articulate authorities on the conflict in the Middle East. From his time teaching side by side with Israelis at the Hebrew University through his appointment by Yasir Arafat to administer the Arab Jerusalem, he has held fast to the principles of freedom and equality for all, and his story dramatizes the consequences of war, partition, and terrorism as few other books have done. This autobiography brings rare depth and compassion to the story of his country. A "New York Times Book Review" Editors' Choice
