In 1916, in the middle of the First World War, two men secretly agreed to divide the Middle East between them.
Using newly declassified papers from the British and French archives, James Barr brings this overlooked clandestine struggle back to life, and reveals, for the first time, the stunning way in which the French finally got their revenge..
In 1946, after many years of intrigue and espionage, Britain finally succeeded in ousting France from Lebanon and Syria, and hoped that, having done so, it would be able to cling on to Palestine.
It explains exactly how the old antagonism between these two powers inflamed the more familiar modern rivalry between the Arabs and the Jews, and ultimately led to war between the British and the French in 1941 and between the Arabs and the Jews in 1948.
Lawrence, Winston Churchill and Charles de Gaulle, A Line in the Sand vividly tells the story of the short but crucial era when Britain and France ruled the Middle East.
E.
Through a stellar cast of politicians, diplomats, spies and soldiers, including T.
The creation of Britain's 'mandates' of Palestine, Transjordan and Iraq, and France's in Lebanon and Syria, made the two powers uneasy neighbours for the following thirty years.
Against the odds their pact survived the war to form the basis for the post-war division of the region into five new countries Britain and France would rule.
Territory north of that stark Line would go to France; land south of it, to Britain.
The deal they struck, which was designed to relieve tensions that threatened to engulf the Entente Cordiale, drew a Line in the Sand from the Mediterranean to the Persian frontier.
Sir Mark Sykes was a visionary politician
Francois Georges-Picot a diplomat with a grudge.
