The Revolution of 1936-1939 in Palestine by Ghassan Kanafani

I first came to know Ghassan Kanafani as a gifted writer of novels and short stories. I have come to appreciate him as much for his nonfiction work as well.

This recently translated text helps give a concise version of how this revolution began, how it ended (big surprise, colluding Arab nations helped douse its fires), and why it, in a way, predestined 1948.
