Descrizione

8vo., Second Edition, with 9 plates on 6, 8 folding maps coloured in outline and 6 large folding coloured maps in pocket at end; original series binding of red cloth, gilt back, a near fine copy in the dustwrapper, the latter lightly sunned at backstrip. Compiled at the request of the Government of India, this is one of the so-called 'mystery' volumes in the British official history of the First World War. Printed in an edition of just five hundred copies by HMSO in 1929, its very existence was classified because of political objections on the part of the Indian Office. This much-needed facsimile reissue gives a detailed account of the British military involvement in Persia between 1914 and 1919 and goes on to reveal the story behind the book's suppression.
