A Letter from Jim Fletcher, Editor-in-Chief

Balfour Books exists to provide balance to perspectives concerning the Arab-Israeli conflict. Created in 2003, Balfour provides a platform for authors who see the Middle East from their balconies, who live in this volatile region of the globe. Often ignored by media elites, these commentators shed fascinating light on everything from terrorism to peace negotiations and the reality of life in between.

From the searing images in the explosive documentary Relentless to the legendary story of the Entebbe hostage rescue, Balfour product educates, motivates, and helps move the debate over justice for Arabs and Jews toward more realistic solutions.

Bold and innovative, Balfour Books is reaching a vast market of readers who are discerning and selective in the information they consume. Truly relevant for all ages, Balfour titles inform lay audiences and scholars alike. The Balfour team has selected authors from a wide variety of political and religious persuasions to bring facts out into the open - facts that often challenge conventional wisdom.

No matter one’s position on the global war on terror, we owe it to ourselves to be as informed as possible. The stakes are too high to be otherwise.
