desertcart.com: British Petroleum and the Redline Agreement: The West's Secret Pact to Get Mideast Oil: 9780914153153: Black, Edwin: Books

Review: Foundational work - This an exceptional and important book detailing the behind the scenes wrangling over the oil resources of the middle east at the turn of the last century. Extremely well researched - and given the complexity of the subject matter - very well written, this book should be a must read for any student of the modern middle east. The author approaches his subject without obvious bias and produces a fair and factual rendering of the many competing interests that were at work at the time. As a student at university I wrote a brief research paper on the Sykes Picot agreement. At the time it seemed to me to be the driving force for the way countries were created in the region, but after reading this book I realize it was more of a sideshow to the real action, which was a combination of national and business interests around organized exploiting the oil resources of the region. One again, this is a very important book and I am thankful to the author for writing it! It will serve as a foundational work for those seeking to understand why the region is the way it is today.
Review: World History - Great book. Difficult reading, but fairly short. Very interesting and helps you understand the political issues of the Middle East today. It was assigned to me for a law class, so I have had some explanation along with it. Well worth the read if this is an area of interest
