Three decades of British rule over Palestine, known as the Mandate, is one of the great dramas in British imperial history, and remains passionately controversial now, some fifty years after the last British High Commissioner left Jerusalem. British policies, promises, the mere presence of Britain in the Holy Land, are all still argued, deplored, or--less frequently--admired. An essential purchase for anyone interested in modern Middle East history. Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: Under 1 kilogram. Category: History; Britain/UK; ISBN: 0500251169.
