Cassell & Co., London 1978 Hardcover with dust jacket Ours is an ex-library copy in transparent protective covering, with usual stamps, stickers, and barcode. GOOD book in GOOD unclipped dust jacket This is a fascinating document in the history of the Middle East, illuminating the benevolent ideas and political blunders of British policy between the two World Wars.
