"It's usually called the Yom Kippur War. Or sometimes the October War. The players who surround it are familiar: Sadat and Mubarak, Meir and Sharon, Nixon and Kissinger, Brezhnev and Dobrynin. It was a war that brought Arab and Jew into vicious conflict, a war in which Israel almost unleashed her nuclear arsenal and set two superpowers on a treacherous course of nuclear escalation.".
"It was a war that eventually brought peace, but a peace fraught with delicate tensions, disputed borders, and a legacy of further bloodshed." "The Two O'Clock War is a chronicle of the international chess game that was played out in October 1973. It is a story of diplomacy and military might that accounts for many of the dilemmas faced in the present-day Middle East."--BOOK JACKET.
