Description:Following the end of the Second World War the main mission of the British Army in Palestine was to contain Jewish attacks and illegal immigration while the fate of the Mandate was being decided. This book is a record of the British Army during the final year and its impact on the course and outcome of the 1948 war.With the decision of the UN General Assembly on 29th November 1947 to partition Palestine and the anticipated intercommunal violence, the Army was made responsible for the maintenance of law and order throughout Palestine until the termination of the Mandate on 15th May 1948.
