Thirteen Days in September: The Dramatic Story of the Struggle for Peace

by Lawrence Wright

Recommendations from our site

“Given what’s happened in the Middle East, and in relations between Israel and its neighbors since, we tend, in hindsight, to downplay this deal, to see it as superseded by later events. But Israel and Egypt are still at peace, they still have diplomatic relations, and that relationship is still one of the few pillars for peace in the region. This book is key to understanding that event and to understanding the Carter presidency. Wright is an incredible journalist and a phenomenal writer. You can’t put this book down.” Read more...
