Zusammenfassung:A look at the end of British rule in Palestine, through the eyes of its final high commissioner. British General Sir Allan Cunningham was appointed in 1945 as high commissioner of Palestine, and served in this capacity until the end of the British mandate on May 15, 1948. The three years of Cunningham's tenure were tremendously complex politically: players included the British government in London, the British army, the British administration in Jerusalem, and diverse military forces within the Zionist establishment, both Jew and Arab. The author revisits this period from the perspective of the high commissioner, examining understudied official documents as well as Cunningham's letters, notes, and cables.
