The Wars of the Middle Eastern Succession, Second Edition: 1914-2016 by Curtis F. Jones

Since the British launched their subjugation of Iraq in 1914, the Middle East has experienced almost constant warfare, often with the outcome of one conflict influencing the next—a trend that continues to this day, along with a long-standing tradition of Western powers trying (and often failing) to chart the region’s political and ideological paths. The Wars of the Middle Eastern Succession: 1914–2016, provides a comprehensive overview of eighteen wars fought in the Middle East in the last century, some of which are still being fought today.
