This book examines
the personal vision of General Sir John Glubb, British
pro-Consul
in the Middle East and commander of the Arab Legion between
1936-1956. It offers the first in-depth account of Glubb's
thinking and actions during 1948, as he led his small army
into Palestine and war against Israel. His aims and actions,
which lie at the very heart of the controversy between 'Old'
and 'New' historians of the Arab-Israeli conflict, are
carefully detailed using, for the first time, contemporary
British, Arab Legion, and Israel Defence Forces intelligence
sources.
