The Mount of Megiddo, otherwise known as Armageddon, has witnessed 4000 years of almost constant warfare, beginning with the first recorded battle in history, between Thutmose III and the Canaanites in 1479 BC. In this well-written history, Cline examines over 30 battles between Egyptians, Israelites, Philistines, Greeks, Roman, Byzantines, Muslims, Crusaders, Mongols, Palestinians, French, British, Australians, Arabs and Israelis, culminating in the 1973 conflict between Israelis and Syrians at the Ramat David airfield. Cline investigates the reasons why different cultures so persistently clash in the Jezreel Valley, leading to its popular identification as the stage for the final battle between good and evil.
