C. Brad Faught is Professor of History and Chair of the Department of History and Global Studies at Tyndale University, Toronto, Canada. He is a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society and a Senior Fellow of Massey College at the University of Toronto. He is the author of, among other books, Into Africa: The Imperial Life of Margery Perham (2012) and Kitchener: Hero and Anti-Hero (2016).
Professor Faught has written a concise, stimulating account of the life and times of Allenby. He communicates the romanticism and complexity of the conflicts in which he was embroiled, and brings his story to a new audience at a time when the Middle East is again, as so often, headline news. * Military History Matters *
