There are few books that that describe the Arab view of life and living. This is one that I would recommend for anyone wondering why all the peace treaties in the Middle East have broken down, or why Jordan supports the Palestinian people, or just what happened to Lisa Halaby-the girl who married King Hussein of Jordan in 1978. It is a remarkably frank and believable account of Jordan's struggles with its Arab neighbors, Israel, the
U. S., and European countries, told from the unusual viewpoint of an Arab queen. Very thought-provoking!
