Book Club: Fate of Abraham, why the West is wrong about Islam
Details
The Fate of Abraham: Why the West is Wrong about Islam
by Peter Oborne.
Based on rigorous historical research and forensic contemporary journalism that leads him frequently into war-torn states and bloody conflict zones, Oborne explains the myths, fabrications and downright lies that have contributed to this pernicious state of affairs. He shows how various falsehoods run deep, reaching back as far as the birth of Islam, and have then been repurposed for the modern day.
Book is available at Foyles and elsewhere.
