In this study, Gat looks at British policy in the period leading up to the Six-Day War. Although Britain holds centre stage in this account, the study discusses in some detail American policy and its effect on the Arab-Israeli conflict. It also focuses on the Middle East water dispute, its impact on future events and eventually the outbreak of war in 1967. This is an examination of the process by which the Middle East became yet another Cold War playground. Gat makes extensive use of British, American and Israeli archives. This is a fascinating look at the process by which the Middle East became yet another Cold War playground.To date, most scholars on the Arab-Israeli conflict have focused on the events of the Six-Day War, rather than on the tumultuous years prior to the war.
