Reviews
'The research behind this work is impressive. Roshwald has not only used British and French archives but also consulted American and Israeli holdings. The documentation is thorough, and enough anecdotes have been culled from the papers to ease the reader through a complex tale ... it is an invaluable foundation for study of the changing British and French roles in the region.' W. Scott Lucas, University of Birmingham, French History, Volume 5, No. 4, Dec '91
'extremely well-researched and well-written book ... Roshwald has done an excellent job in directing the reader through the maze of conflicting political and personal considerations that governed British policy-making ... an excellent study and will surely become the standard work on this subject' Asher Susser, Middle Eastern Studies, Vol. 29, No. 1, Jan '93
Like all war stories it is a riveting saga. His book is well-constructed, copiously documented, objective and not bemused by hindsight. * The British Journal of Middle Eastern Studies *
