Hanf, Theodor.

8vo. xvi, [1], 712 pp., maps, tables, translated from the German by John Richardson, cloth in d/w, biblio. index, copy in mint condition, Centre for Lebanese Studies, & I. B. Tauris, Oxford & London, first English edition, 1993.

The book combines a vast encyclopaedic history of the war in Lebanon with a penetrating sociological analysis. Tracing the war to its origins, the author shows that it has been primarily a surrogate war over Palestine which escalated into a conflict between the diverse Lebanese communities each afraid of being the prayer left standing in a macabre game of musical chairs.
