Description & Specifications

This is the untold story of Britain's role in the Israel-Palestine conflict.

During the First World War, the British High Commissioner in Egypt signed a secret agreement with the Sharif of Mecca. If the Sharif allied with Britain against the Ottomans, an independent Arab state would be established after the war, which would include Palestine. The Sharif kept his promise. The British did not. Instead, two years later, Lloyd George's government stated that Palestine would belong to the international Jewish community.

Through a methodical analysis of official records and private documents, Peter Shambrook reveals how Britain betrayed the Arabs. He debunks the myth that Palestine was never part of the territories guaranteed by the Sharif and records the efforts of successive British governments to prevent the truth from ever becoming public.

For those interested in the history of the Israel-Palestine conflict, it is an essential read.
