Description
On October 6, 1973 Israel and her Arab neighbours plunged for the fourth time into open warfare. The stated objectives seemed simple enough. For the Arabs it was a war of liberation; for the Israelis a battle for survival. But the desert conflict precipitated a world oil crisis, brought the superpowers to nuclear alert, and rocked the Western Alliance. The Insight Team of the Sunday Times, with correspondents at the battlefronts, in the Middle East capitals and at the centres of world diplomacy, provide an authoritative account of the war and its repercussions.ISBN:023396567X
