Reviews
"When a brilliant, lucid historian such as Michael B. Oren . . . brings the past back to life . . . it is a shaft of light in a dark sky." -- Robert Kagan (Washington Post Book World) "Hugely ambitious, drawing on hundreds of original sources to create a finely balanced overview of this enormously complex subject." -- Max Rodenbeck (New York Times Book Review) "Elegant and engaging.... Had George W. Bush been abled to read this magnificent book before he launched Operation Iraqi Freedom... he might well have realized just how dangerous it has been to shoot first and ask questions later in the Middle East over the past 200 years." -- Douglas Little (Foreign Affairs) "A tour de force, brilliantly researched and written, and extremely interesting as well as informative." -- Henry Kissinger "A landmark achievement." -- Walter Russell Mead, Council on Foreign Relations

Synopsis
This best-selling history is the first fully comprehensive history of America's involvement in the Middle East from George Washington to George W. Bush. As Niall Ferguson writes, "If you think America's entanglement in the Middle East began with Roosevelt and Truman, Michael Oren's deeply researched and brilliantly written history will be a revelation to you, as it was to me. With its cast of fascinating characters--earnest missionaries, maverick converts, wide-eyed tourists, and even a nineteenth-century George Bush--Power, Faith, and Fantasy is not only a terrific read, it is also proof that you don't really understand an issue until you know its history.", "Will shape our thinking about America and the Middle East for years."--Christopher Dickey, Newsweek, This best-selling history is the first fully comprehensive history of America's involvement in the Middle East from George Washington to George W. Bush.
