The Suez Crisis (War and Conflict in the Middle East)

The Suez Crisis (War and Conflict in the Middle East)

When Egypt took control of the Suez Canal to gain money from the tolls paid by passing ships, Britain and France, who previously controlled the canal, wanted to take it back through war. Russia and the U.S. refused to let this happen, so Britain and France convinced the Israeli government to attack Egypt instead, thus opening the gates for other European countries to attack as well. This book explores the behind-the-scenes politics that control conflicts and create history.
