| Note | Based on a Ph.D. thesis: Tel Aviv University. Bibliography: p347-367. - Includes index. Shortly after the First World War, General Sir George Macdonogh, wartime British Director of Military Intelligence, revealed that Lord Allenby's victory in Palestine had been certain because every one of his opponents' cards was known: Allenby was conse. ently able to play his own hand with perfect assurance. This book tells for the first time how such an astonishing achievement came about. Drawing on extensive British archival documentation as well as Ottoman and German sources, Yigal Sheffy presents t. development, operations and contribution of British military intelligence in the campaign against the Ottoman Empire on the Egypt and Palestine front during the war, placing it in regional context and historical perspective. |
