Nelson Mandela - Der Lange Weg zur Freiheit
(Spiegel - Edition Band 7)

Außer dem Leben, einer starken Konstitution und einer dauerhaften Verbindung zum Thembu-Könighaus gam mir mein Vater nur einen Namen mit, Rolihlahla. Wörtlich bedeutet Rolihlahla: "Am Ast des Baumes Ziehen", doch der umgangssprachliche Sinn lautet ziemlich genau: Unruhstifter. Ich glaube nicht, daß mein Vater irgendwie ahnte, was für eine Zukunft mich erwartete, doch in späteren Jahren machten freunde und Verwandte oft meinen Geburtsnamen verantwortlich für die vielen Stürme, die ich sowohl verursacht als auch überstanden habe. (Nelson Mandela, Der Lange Weg zur Freiheit)

Blood Brother - Elias Chacour
(The Unforgettable Story of Palestinian Christian Working for Peace in Israel)

As a child, Elias Chacour lived in a small Palestinian village in Galilee, the townspeole were proud of their ancient Christian heritage and lived at peace with Jewish neighbors, But in 1948 and '49 their idyllic lifestyle was swept away as tens of thousands of Palestinians were killed and nearly one million were forced into refugee camps.
An exile in his native land, Elias began a years-long struggle with his love for the Jewish people and the world's misunderstanding of his own people, the Palestinians. How was he to respond? He found his answer in the simple, haunting words of the Man of Galilee: "Blessed are the Peacemakers".
In Blood Brothers Chacour blends his riveting life story with historical research to reveal a little-known side of the Arab-Israeli conflict and the birth of modern Israel. He touches on controversial question such as:

• What behind-the-scenes politics touched off the turmoil in the Middle East?
• What does Bible prophecy really have to say?
• Can bitter enemies ever be reconciled?

In a world of tension and terror, this book offers hope and insight that can help each of us learn to live at peace.
