Lawrence, Gertrude Bell, Attaturk, Emir Feisal and Lloyd George the book describes the showdown with the Ottoman Empire which erupted into the devastating Eastern campaign of World War I and led to the formation - by bureaucracy and subterfuge by Americans and Europeans - of the states known collectively as the Middle East. The years 1914-1922 were the creative, formative years when everything seemed possible, but the events of 1922, the pivotal year, set the course for a future of endless wars and acts of terrorism that became the legacy of this period. Issues such as The Allenby Declaration establishing nominal independence for Egypt, the Palestine Mandate and the Churchill White Paper (from which Israel and Jordan sprang), the installing of Hashemite leaders of predominantly Shi'ite teritories, new leaders for Egypt and Iraq, the Russian declaration of a Soviet Union intent on re-establishing her rule over Moslem Central Asia - David Fromkin shows how all these changed the Middle East (and Europe) forever.Hide synopsis

This is one of those bone wearying books that everyone should read. Want to know why the Mideast is such a mess? Read this book. The author proves his thesis over and over again. I'd like to make it required reading for every politician!

I found this book very enjoyable to read. The facts although almost a century old are so relevant to what is happening today in the Middle East, Arabia, Asia and even parts of Europe. The book is well researched, well founded but very interesting to read.
