`This is a well-written history of Syria in the early to mid-twentieth century as seen primarily through the lives of Hajj Uthman Sharabati and his son Ahmad, both influential figures during French Mandate Syria and in the early independence period following 1946. The book is meticulously researched, and Sami Moubayed has mined and unearthed previously unknown primary Syrian documents to tell the stories of the lives of a number of prominent twentieth century Syrian politicians and political influencers.' - David W. Lesch, Ewing Halsell Distinguished Professor of History, Trinity University
