Tracing your Great War ancestors. The Egypt and Palestine campaigns

Hadaway, Stuart2017
Books
This title is explicitly aimed at helping the descendants of those who fought in this part of the Middle East find out more about their ancestors actions, experiences and achievements. Their wartime lives were very different to those who served on the Western Front, and yet have never before been explored from this angle. Hundreds of thousands of British and Imperial troops fought in the Western Desert, Sinai Desert, Palestine, the Jordan Valley and Syria. As well as giving the reader a vivid impression of the experience of wartime service in the region, Stuart Hadaway provides a guide to main sources, archives and websites that researchers can consult to get an insight into their ancestors role and their contribution to the war effort.
