Item Description
Two great books!! A Path to Peace: A Brief History of Israeli-Palestinian Negotiations and a Way Forward in the Middle East, is the illuminating (Los Angeles Times) answer to why Israel and Palestines attempts at negotiation have failed and a practical, admirably measured (The New York Times) roadmap for bringing peace to the Middle East by an impartial American diplomat experienced in solving international conflicts. George Mitchell knows how to bring peace to troubled regions. He was the primary architect of the 1998 Good Friday Agreement for peace in Northern Ireland. But when he served as US Special Envoy for Middle East Peace from 2009 to 2011working to end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict diplomacy did not prevail. Now, for the first time, Mitchell offers his insider account of how the Israelis and the Palestinians have progressed (and regressed) in their negotiations through the years and outlines the specific concessions each side must make to finally achieve lasting peace. "8 Seconds of Courage," is an inspiring story of valor and the making of a hero, Florent Grobergwho grew up in France and emigrated to the US, becomes the first immigrant in forty years to receive the Congressional Medal of Honor after he tackled a suicide bomber in Afghanistan. In his own words, Flo provides that essential insight into his selfless act while remembering his four fallen brothers in arms. 8 Seconds of Courage is a story of heroism, sacrifice, and camaraderie in wartime.
