As the attention of the world is focused on the increasingly
beleaguered U.S. and U.K. occupation of Iraq, Iraq expert and
Middle East historian Peter Sluglett revisits Britain's creation of
Iraq in the twentieth century in this thoroughly revised edition of
his classic text 'Britain in Iraq'. Sluglett presents a
comprehensive history of British policy towards Iraq from the
beginnings of the Mesopotamia campaign in 1914 through the creation
of Iraq in 1920 and the period of the mandate until Iraqi
independence in 1932. As well as being a history of Britain's
relations with Iraq, the book also traces the implementation of
British policies in a number of key areas and the creation of the
principal institutions of the state. As such it is an important
contribution to both Middle Eastern and British imperial history,
and crucial to our understanding of Iraq today.
