A Message From Mesopotamia is a book written by Arthur Lawley and published in 1917. The book is a collection of letters and diary entries that Lawley wrote while serving as the Governor of the British-controlled province of Basra in Mesopotamia (modern-day Iraq) during World War I. The book provides a unique insight into the challenges faced by the British administration in Mesopotamia during the war, including the difficulties of managing a diverse population, dealing with tribal leaders and local officials, and coordinating military and civilian efforts. Through his letters and diary entries, Lawley also offers his personal observations on the local culture, customs, and traditions of the people of Mesopotamia, as well as his experiences of living and working in the region. Overall, A Message From Mesopotamia is an important historical document that provides a fascinating glimpse into the politics and social dynamics of the British Empire during World War I, as well as the complexities of governing a region with a rich and diverse cultural heritage.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
