History perfectly written

I grabbed this audiobook as I love history. Learning about a culture very different that mine is eye-opening and improved my understanding of this wonderful area of the world. The Palestinian conflicts have been in the news as long as I can remember. Learning the in's and out's of the October 7th attacks was easy to follow, and the information was delivered very well.

Excellent!

I was curious to dive in and explore this incessantly "hot topic". It seems that I grew up hearing about this conflict and still today, the damage persists. However, dreary as this subject can be, this was a good book to dive into and I'm glad I chose to give it a chance. I really enjoyed gaining knowledge and a better understanding through this listen, as it is well-narrated provides ample information without feeling overwhelmingly academic. Certainly worth discovering if you are also wanting to learn more about this topic!
