Description
The Palestine Papers: 1917-1922 brings to light a pivotal period in history through previously unseen documents. Doreen Ingrams has uncovered secret British cabinet papers, Foreign Office memoranda, and annotations to reveal the creation of a Zionist homeland from the Palestine Protectorate. Read firsthand accounts from key figures such as Curzon, Churchill, Weizmann, Balfour, T.E. Lawrence, and others, who shaped the course of events in their own words. A collection of previously hidden documents sheds light on the complexities of this period, leaving room for interpretation and debate. This book offers a unique perspective on the early 20th-century history of Palestine, presenting a nuanced view of the events that led to the establishment of a Jewish homeland.
