Review: Foundational work - This an exceptional and important book detailing the behind the scenes wrangling over the oil resources of the middle east at the turn of the last century. Extremely well researched - and given the complexity of the subject matter - very well written, this book should be a must read for any student of the modern middle east. The author approaches his subject without obvious bias and produces a fair and factual rendering of the many competing interests that were at work at the time. As a student at university I wrote a brief research paper on the Sykes Picot agreement. At the time it seemed to me to be the driving force for the way countries were created in the region, but after reading this book I realize it was more of a sideshow to the real action, which was a combination of national and business interests around organized exploiting the oil resources of the region. One again, this is a very important book and I am thankful to the author for writing it! It will serve as a foundational work for those seeking to understand why the region is the way it is today. Review: World History - Great book. Difficult reading, but fairly short. Very interesting and helps you understand the political issues of the Middle East today. It was assigned to me for a law class, so I have had some explanation along with it. Well worth the read if this is an area of interest ## Features - Used Book in Good Condition ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,612,134 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #559 in Turkey History (Books) #8,509 in Great Britain History (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 32 Reviews | ## Images ![British Petroleum and the Redline Agreement: The West's Secret Pact to Get Mideast Oil - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51gOFoBDJIL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Foundational work *by C***R on September 25, 2016* This an exceptional and important book detailing the behind the scenes wrangling over the oil resources of the middle east at the turn of the last century.

Difficult reading, but fairly short. Very interesting and helps you understand the political issues of the Middle East today. It was assigned to me for a law class, so I have had some explanation along with it. Well worth the read if this is an area of interest ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Really a Must-Read *by M***N on December 12, 2012* I can get my britches in a bunch just for hearing about the Middle East machinations and maybe that is partly why I like this book. I wish that our peerless leaders had read it before wandering in to liberate the poor down-trodden pipples of Iraq. Unfortunately, it wasn't published until 2011. ## Frequently Bought Together - British Petroleum and the Redline Agreement: The West's Secret Pact to Get Mideast Oil - The Transfer Agreement: The Dramatic Zionist Rescue of Jews from the Third Reich to Jewish Palestine - Financing the Flames: How Tax-Exempt and Public Money Fuel a Culture of Confrontation and Terror in Israel --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/5465011-british-petroleum-and-the-redline-agreement-the-wests-secret-pact](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/5465011-british-petroleum-and-the-redline-agreement-the-wests-secret-pact) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-09-12*
