The Book You MUST Read to Understand JIHAD and America’s Challenge in the Middle East . . . Murray S. Fradin, B.A., a historian and Middle East Specialist, has drawn upon his research to bring out his new, third edition of JIHAD: The Mahdi Rebellion in the Sudan. It includes new, exciting material including special maps and illustrations. This new edition will show how extremist movements in the Middle East have affected today’s news. History is not a blank slate with isolated, unrelated facts. It is an integral part of a much larger mosaic that links the past with the present. Jihad: The Mahdi Rebellion in the Sudan is even now being read in the most prestigious military academies in the U.S. from West Point to Annapolis to Virginia Military Institute to the Citadel for possible inclusion in their academic programs. Many more venues will open up as Americans seek to understand the complex cultures of the Middle East.
