The Husayni family of Jerusalem dominated Palestinian history for
250 years, from the Ottoman times through to the end of the British
Mandate. At the height of the family's political influence,
positions in Jerusalem could only be obtained through its power
base.In this compelling political biography, Ilan Pappe traces the
rise of the Husaynis from a provincial Ottoman elite clan into the
leadership of the Palestinian national movement in the twentieth
century. In telling their story, Pappe highlights the continuous
urban history of Jerusalem and Palestine. Shedding new light on
crucial events such as the invasion of Palestine by Napoleon, the
decline of the Ottoman Empire, World War I and the advent of
Zionism, this remarkable account provides an unforgettable picture
of the Palestinian tragedy in its entirety.
