J. C. Hurewitz's edited volume The Middle East and North Africa in World Politics: A Documentary Record, Yale University Press, 1975, is a scholarly documentary collection. Its strength is that it gathers primary treaties, declarations and diplomatic documents from the region's modern political history in one accessible, annotated volume. Its limit is the ordinary one for any documentary collection: the editor's own selection and framing shape which documents a reader encounters, and the volume is now half a century old, so it does not extend to more recent events.
