The Seventh Million: The Israelis and the Holocaust
By Tom Segev
Publisher: Hill & Wang Pub (Reprint edition April 1994)
This controversial and powerful history is the first to show the decisive impact of the Holocaust on the identity, ideology, and politics of Israel. Drawing on diaries, interviews, and thousands of declassified documents, Tom Segev reconsiders the major struggles and personalities of Israel’s past-Ben-Gurion, Begin, Nahum Goldmann-and argues that the nation’s charged legacy has, at critical moments-the Exodus affair, the Eichmann trial, the case of John Demjanjuk-been molded and manipulated in accordance with the ideological requirements of the state.

A History of Modern Palestine : One Land, Two Peoples
By Ilan Pappe
Publisher: Cambridge University Press (November 3, 2003), 333 pages
Ilan Pappe’s book is the story of Palestine, a land inhabited by two peoples, and two national identities. It begins with the Ottomans in the early 1800s, the reign of Muhammad Ali, and traces a path through the arrival of the early Zionists at the end of that century, through the British mandate at the beginning of the twentieth century, the establishment of the state of Israel in 1948, and the subsequent wars and conflicts which culminated in the intifadas of 1987 and 2000.
