The Decline of Arab Unity: The Rise and Fall of the United Arab Republic

This is the first book in English to tell the story of this important, yet neglected, episode in modern Arab history. The research is based on archival material located in the United States, Britain, Canada and Israel, as well as available resources in Arabic. The use of these primary sources allows for a fresh look at the UAR.
