In October 1973 the Egyptian armies swarmed over the Suez Canal. In the next few days of fighting they amd the Syrians to the north dramatically reversed the current of the previous decades and proved that Arab could hold his own with Iraeli in open battle.

Yet these events were only the culmination of a long and patient process of negotiation and reconstruction which had gone on since the crushing defeat of the Arabs om the Six-Day War of June 1967. In this enthrallin book, Mohamed Heikal tells the story of those years ...

An Insider's Account of America's Iranian Adventure and Its Consequences for the Future

Iran, the Untold Story

"Autumn of Fury reads like a political thriller. It is also a salutory revelation. For years Sadat, the actor manqué, played a part before Western audiences, who were happy to see only what they wanted to see. For years Sadat's censors prevented Mr Heikal from telling the truth as he knew it. Now the truth can be told. Sadat dramatically transformed Nasser's Egypt. He expelled the Russians; he almost archived victory over Israel in October 1973; he allied himself with the Americans; and he made a separate peace with Israel."--Jacket.
