This in-depth study fills a large gap in modern Palestinian historiography and provides an important source of information about the attitudes and social structure of the Palestinian political elite during a crucial period in the Palestinian national movement. The appendices to the work contain valuable documentation and detailed lists of the major committees, conferences, parties, and delegations of the period under consideration.
