Description

Explore a detailed analysis of British military strategy and the defense of Egypt during the years leading up to the Second World War. This volume by Steven Morewood examines the critical period between 1935 and 1940, focusing on the tensions in the Eastern Mediterranean and the threat posed by fascist Italy. This work provides a new perspective on the security of Egypt, a central element of British imperial policy. It examines the period through the lens of the ongoing appeasement debate and offers a fresh interpretation of how the Italian military threat was handled. The narrative follows the buildup of conflict and leads to the decisive military actions at Sidi Barrani in December 1940. Readers interested in 20th-century European history and military policy will find this a significant addition to the field. It addresses a neglected dimension of wartime strategy, making it a valuable resource for students and historians studying the origins of conflict in the Mediterranean region.
