Into the Hands of the Soldiers by David D. Kirkpatrick Book Summary

ONE OF THE ECONOMIST'S BOOKS OF THE YEAR

David D. Kirkpatrick, a correspondent for The New York Times, was banned from Egypt for writing this book: the definitive account of the turn back toward authoritarianism in Cairo and across the Middle East.

Egypt has long set the paradigm for Arab autocracy. It is the keeper of the peace with Israel and the cornerstone of the American-backed regional order. So when Egyptians rose up to demand democracy in 2011, their thirty months of freedom convulsed the whole region.

Now a new strongman, Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, is building a dictatorship so severe some call it totalitarian. The economy sputters, an insurgency simmers, Christians suffer, and the Israeli military has been forced to intervene. But some in Washington—including President Trump—applaud Sisi as a crucial ally.

Kirkpatrick lived with his family in Cairo through the revolution, the coup and the bloodshed that followed. Then he returned to Washington to uncover the American role in the tragedy. His heartbreaking story is essential to understanding the Middle East today.

One of the best books I have read about 2011 Egypt. Well written book about the 2011 revolution. The author’s dug deeper when stereotypes and truisms about the region would have offered an easy way out.

Excellent and unbiased depiction of the fall of Egypt revolution. As an Arabic person who had great aspirations for justice and freedom, I had followed the events of the revolution in Egypt from 2011 to 2014. I found this book to give an excellent picture of what happened, it focuses on some of the key player with fair amount of back ground and details. There are some topics which were not mentioned at all or were mentioned with small details but maybe that was out of the scope of this book. I stopped following Egypt news since few years and reading this book brought back some very sad memories, Egypt was the start of a great hope for millions of Arabs who for the first time saw a light at the end of the tunnel, saw an opportunity for better life for them selves and their children but crushing that revolution in that evil way crushed so many dreams and wishes. I would highly recommend this book for anyone who wants to have a better understanding of the Egypt revolution and how it came to and end and the ramifications of both the rise and the fall of this great event.
