As Middle-East Bureau Chief of the French Public television
network and a resident of Jerusalem since 1968, Charles Enderlin
has had unequaled access to leaders and negotiators on all sides.
Here he takes the reader step-by-step along the path that began
with the hope of agreement but led only to the ultimate collapse of
the peace process. The dramatic account moves between the occupied
territories and the negotiation tables as it follows the emotional
shifts in the conflict from the 1995 assassination of Yitzhak Rabin
to the years when Benjamin Netenyahu was in power. In a definitive
account of the meetings at Camp David in July 2000, Enderlin
details what was said between Israeli and Palestinian negotiators
brought together by Bill Clinton in the presence of Yasir Arafat,
President of the Palestinian Authority, and Israeli Prime Minister
Ehud Barak.
