How did Gamal Abdul Nasser use nationalism to unite Arab countries?

Asked by emeraldisles (1949points) April 19th, 2012

I’ve been researching him for my paper. I know that he was keen on using the radio to send his message. I know that he was devestated by the loss of the 6 Day War. I would appreciate having help finding out some scholarly websites or books online that go more into it.

Here is a short article that discusses how his stand against two major European powers brought him huge popularity. Here is a link to Nasser’s own book about Egypt’s liberation (you can read it online). This is a link to an interesting article about a book on Nasser. This is the review of a book by a Jewish author who escaped Egypt with her family in the 1960’s. It actually sounds fascinating as the author became an award winning journalist for the Wall Street Journal.
