Rezensionen

"Interest in the relationship between Christians and Muslims in Palestine in the twentieth century has hit an all-time high. Freas pulls together many disparate pieces to provide the prequel to that story as he offers detailed explanations with evidence, context, and depth for what are usually simplistic assumptions about that nineteenth century. Muslim-Christian Relations in Late-Ottoman Palestine is certainly a worthy addition to the literature in the field." - Noah Haiduc-Dale, Assistant Professor of History, Centenary College, New Jersey, USA; author of Arab Christians in British Mandate Palestine: Communalism and Nationalism, 1917-1948
