About This Item
New York: W W Norton & Co Inc, 2003. Book. As New. Hardcover. First American Edition. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. First American Edition, stated. Hard cover binding, 506 pp. "In Sowing the Wind: The Seeds of Conflict in the Middle East, John Keay, as his subtitle promises, wants to answer the big question, about why the Middle East has produced so much conflict-and been at the receiving end of so much. His scope is impressive: he ranges from the dying Ottoman Empire before the First World War to the emergence of a new Egypt under Gamel Abdel Nasser after the Second. And he brings in wonderful characters- Lawrence of Arabia, of course, but also figures like the civil engineer who became the biggest contractor in Iraq and married one of two identical twin sisters, though no one ever knew which. Keay, the author of several books on the British Empire, tells a good story."(NYTimes). New in dustjacket..
