Edmund Allenby, Viscount Allenby of Megiddo and Felixstowe, as he became later, was the principal British military figure in the region from 1917 to 1919. He fulfilled a similar proconsular role in Egypt from the latter year until 1925. In these two roles Allenby' s eight years in the Middle East were of great impact, and in probing his life an especially revealing window can be found through which to observe closely and understand more fully the history that has resulted in the terminal roil afflicting the Middle East and international affairs today. Brad Faugh' s biography of Allenby explores the events and actions of Allenb' s life, as well as to examine his thinking on both the British Empire and the post-World War I international order. Faught brings clarity to Allenb' s decisive impact on British imperial policy in the making of the modern Middle East, and thereby on the long arc of the regio' s continuing and controversial place in world affairs.
