relations in the Middle East.”—Douglas Little, Clark University

"No one has done a better job than Craig Daigle to explain the
origins of the October 1973 war. He skillfully draws on recently
declassified documents to make a convincing case that U.S.-Soviet
détente had the paradoxical consequence of raising the odds of war
in the Middle East."—William B. Quandt, University of Virginia
*William B. Quandt*
"A perceptive and detailed account of the origins of the 1973
war, especially useful for the Soviet dimension."—Wm. Roger
Louis, University of Texas at Austin
*Wm. Roger Louis*
“This is the first work to explore fully the impact of the
super-power rivalry on the 1973 Middle East war. It provides a
meticulous reading of newly declassified documents and a judicious
analysis of international relations at the height of
détente.”—Rashid Khalidi, Columbia University
