Description

Failure in Palestine traces Britain’s attempts to reconcile her commitments to Palestine with her interests in the rest of the Middle East through bureaucratic and diplomatic paths to her eventual abandonment of Palestine. The text offers an excellent analysis of British decision making in this crucial period, whose repercussions are felt to the present day.
