City of Oranges - An Intimate History of Arabs and Jews in Jaffa (Paperback)

The millennia-old port of Jaffa, now part of Tel Aviv, was once
known as the Bride of Palestine, one of the truly cosmopolitan
cities of the Mediterranean. There Muslims, Jews, and Christians
lived, worked, and celebrated together--and it was commonplace for
the Arabs of Jaffa to attend a wedding at the house of the Jewish
Chelouche family or for Jews and Arabs to both gather at the Jewish
spice shop Tiv and the Arab Khamis Abulafia's twenty-four-hour
bakery. Through intimate personal interviews and generations-old
memoirs, letters, and diaries, Adam LeBor gives us a crucial look
at the human lives behind the headlines--and a vivid narrative of
cataclysmic change.
