A History of the Palestinian People

A History of the Palestinian People: From Ancient Times to the Modern Era is an empty book by Assaf Voll that uses blank pages to suggest that Palestinians have no history. It has continued to circulate on social media among the Israeli right-wing. It was published in paperback and digital formats in 2017, and most of its contents are blank pages. The book rose in Amazon.com's best-selling titles in the category of "Israel and Palestine History", reaching second place before it was pulled from sale by Amazon. Its publication has been described as a "cruel joke". The incident has been said to signify "the continued vitality of a more enduring political, social and cultural impulse to abrogate Palestinian history and identity – on the part of Israel, and by extension, among its Western allies."
