The book takes readers through Italy's conquest and colonization of Libya, the Allied liberation of Libya from the Axis during World War II, the birth of an independent Libya, Libya's stance towards the Arab - Israeli conflict, the Libyan revolution of 1969, the rise of Muammar al-Qaddafi, Libyan sponsorship of terrorism in the 1970s and 1980s, Libya's rapprochement with the west in the early 2000s, the outbreak of the Libyan Revolution in 2011, and the rise of ISIS in Libya.

The foreign policies of successive United States presidential administrations towards Libya, from Franklin D. Roosevelt through Joseph R. Biden, are discussed. Readers interested in Libya's history, the history of the Middle East, or histories of U.S. foreign policy will find this book an excellent primer on how Libyans and the leaders of Italy, Great Britain, the United States, and France navigated complex relationships with Libya"--c| Provided by publisher.;
