A substantial and carefully researched novel exploring the contradictory British promises made during the war to both Arab leaders and Zionist representatives, dramatizing the origins of enduring geopolitical tensions.

Clive Irving (b. 1933) is a British journalist and novelist known for blending investigative rigor with narrative storytelling. Formerly associated with The Sunday Times and part of the 'Insight' investigative team, Irving later became an editor and columnist in the United States. His fiction often reflects deep historical research and political awareness, particularly regarding British imperial history and international affairs. Promise the Earth reflects his sustained interest in the complex legacy of World War I diplomacy in the Middle East.
