A litlte disappointing by way of maps but a comprehensive study
A nice usable atlas with plenty of additional infiormation. I was hoping for a better coverage of Palestine and the founding of the state of Israel but had to wait for 'the State ofhte middle East' for that. I knew of course of the efforts by T. E. Lwarence (of Arabia) and his sidelining by the British and French policy makers following the collapse of the Ottoman empire, but had hoped for a clear map of Palestine.
But then it is a world Atlas so perhaps that was too much to hope for. I shall look for more in 'the State of' series.
