Harb El Aalameeya El Owla Fi El Sharq El Awsat by Christian Ulrikhosn - Paperback, Paperback Book, By: Christian Ulrikhosn

This book is comprehensive in terms of its monitoring of the effects of the course of the First World War on this sensitive region of the world. It is new in its subject, because our region rarely receives the attention of specialists in the West, especially in terms of strategic and military aspects, as well as an awareness of the conditions that prevailed in it during a pivotal historical period. Al-Kitab was able to record its success in shedding light on the blazing battlefronts that were overshadowed by the ferocity, the brutal battles, and the striking confrontations that were similar to what the fronts witnessed The fighting on the European continent, and it took place despite the Middle East's lack at the time of the most basic foundations for the durability of infrastructure, represented by unpaved roads and railroad lines that played a negative role in documenting the movement of communication between wild areas, and limited the speed of movement according to a fire line that extended from Gallipoli passed through Gaza and ended at the bottom of the Tigris in Iraq. The author, Christian Coates Ulrichsen is a James A. Institute Research Fellow. Baker III for public policy and at Rice University. He also dealt, through a similar research grant, to study the affairs of the Middle East and North Africa and work to adhere to the applications of the scientific program accredited by Chatham House. Observers attest to the author's long-standing interest in Middle Eastern affairs, and his continuous follow-up to all the stations of the modern and contemporary history of the Middle East. What is new is that it illuminates unseen aspects of the effects of the first global war on a highly sensitive region from which geopolitical maps and new countries were born, according to international agreements in which influence was shared and they are still living in situations of permanent anxiety over the future of entities, identities and existence.
