Book Description:
|
The victors of WWI created modern Middle East, but little has been written and even less is known about Iraq during WWI. Similar to his earlier works on Persia, Majd combines extensive research of U.S. State Department archives with official British sources to create a timely history of Iraq from 1910 to 1918 that will promote a better understanding of subsequent Iraqi and Middle Eastern history.
