Description

Britain's End of Empire in the Middle East by Keith Kyle On 26 July 1956, the British Empire suffered a significant blow that would mark its decline as a world power. Egypt's President Gamal Abdul Nasser nationalized the Suez Canal Company, sparking a crisis that would have far-reaching consequences for Britain and the region. This book tells the story of the Suez Crisis, drawing on a wealth of documentary evidence to explore the complex web of politics, military strategy, and diplomacy that led to this pivotal moment in history. With new introductory material, this revised edition provides a comprehensive understanding of the events leading up to and following the crisis, making it an essential read for anyone interested in the history of the 20th century and the end of empire. The Suez Crisis was a turning point in modern Middle Eastern history, and Keith Kyle's detailed analysis sheds new light on this pivotal moment.
