Opis

This volume - concluding Eliezer Tauber's trilogy which examines the political development of the Fertile Crescent - examines the impact the clandestine and overt political organizations had in Syria, Lebanon, Palestine and Iraq in the post-World War I period. This includes analysis of Amir Faysal's short-lived state in post-war Syria, the development of relations between Syrians, Iraqis and Palestinians, and the nationalist activity within Iraq.

"A valuable study of Arab politics, clandestine as well as overt, in the early years of this century, and a tribute to Tauber"s stamina in combing the British French and Israeli records, as well as Arab political memoirs, doctoral dissertations, newspapers, periodicals and numerous collections of documents ... A unique resource for students of the period."



United Services Institute Journal

"An ideal book for students of political history of the Middle East."



British Journal of Middle East Studies

"A valuable record which exposes the reader to the concrete realities below the surface of broader historical generalizations on the era.
