Review
"Robert Holland's excellent new book is likely to become the standard text on British policy toward Cyprus in the 1950s. Its meticulous research and scrupulous fairness to all parties make this account of the machinations of the British government particularly damning...[His] book is to be warmly welcomed."--American Historical Review
"[A] rich account of the events that surrounded the revolt against British Colonial rule in Cyprus during 1954-60....[T]he reader is provided a fascinating analysis of power politics being played out between the domestic and external political actors."--MESA Bulletin
"We are fortunate that the decolonization of Cyprus has been tackled in such perceptive and comprehensive detail by a leading British historian. Robert Holland's sophisticated reconstruction of the British role does not leave many stones unturned....This lucid, professional but lively account of the decolonization of Cyprus will undoubtedly become essential reading for all those interested in the past and, indeed, the future of the troubled Mediterranean island. The meticulously documented interpretation of a detached 'end of empire' specialist pro-vides a reference point for the numerous published political treatises and personal accounts of those close to the Cyprus scene."--Book Review

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This is the first in-depth reconstruction of a major British decolonization based fully on original documentation. Charting the `inner history' of a violent colonial Emergency, it provides a case-study of the dilemmas posed by the challenge of terrorism overseas after 1945.Robert Holland analyses the evolution of a political settlement which, almost uniquely in the British `end of empire', slid beyond the United Kingdom's control. Heconsiders the effects of the revolt on the politics of the surrounding region, particularly in relation to the emerging ethnic struggle between Greeks and Turks. His work offers a fresh perspective onMediterranean and Middle Eastern developments, including the involvement of NATO and the United States, in the age of the Suez Crisis and its aftermath.This account is essential reading for anybody interested in the liquidation of the British Empire, the breakdown of ethnic co-existence under intense pressure, and the effects of regional destabilization on the wider international system. This is a reconstruction of a major British decolonization. The text provides a case-study of the dilemmas posed by the challenge of terrorism overseas after 1945 and analyzes the evolution of a political settlement which slid beyond the United Kingdom's control.
