Conclusions. 330 $aThe Middle East is constantly in the news and is a major focus for international conflict. This book attempts to explain why this is so. It covers the crucial period after 1914, when the Ottoman empire was defeated and its provinces taken over by Britain and France, ending in 1958, when the Iraqi revolution finally ended British influence in the region. It describes both British and French policies and the reactions of Arabs and Jews. 606 $aMandates 606 $aImperialism 606 $aAnti-imperialist movements$zMiddle East 607 $aMiddle East$xHistory$y20th century 615 0$aMandates. 615 0$aImperialism. 615 0$aAnti-imperialist movements 676 $a956/.03 686 $a15.75$2bcl 700 $aFieldhouse$b D.
