A unique, stunning collection of images of Palestine in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and a testament to the vibrancy of Palestinian society prior to occupation.This book tells the story, in both English and Arabic, of a land full of peoplepeople with families, hopes, dreams, and a deep connection to their homebefore Israels establishment in 1948, known to Palestinians as the Nakba, or catastrophe. Denying Palestinian existence has been a fundamental premise of Zionism, which has sought not only to hide this existence but also to erase its memory. But existence leaves traces, and the imprint of the Palestine that was remains, even in the absence of those expelled from their lands. It appears in the ruins of a village whose name no longer appears in the maps, in the drawing of a lost landscape, in the lyrics of a song, or in the photographs from a family album.Coedited by Teresa Aranguren and Sandra Barrilaro and featuring a foreword by Mohammed ElKurd, the photographs in this book are traces of that existence that have not been erased. They are testament not to nostalgia, but to the power of resistance.
