The motives of Curzon and others in attempting to obtain a privileged political position in the Hejaz are studied in the context of inter-Allied suspicions and Turkish intrigues in the Arabian Peninsula. This is a penetrating study of war imperialism, when statesmen contemplated strong measures of control in several areas of the Middle East.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46930154717335,"sku":"9780714648750","price":11277.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780714648750.webp?v=1771605133","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/curzon-and-british-imperialism-in-the-middle-east-1916-1919-9780714648750","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
