Peel Commission
The correspondence "haunted Anglo-Arab relations" for many decades thereafter. In January 1923 unofficial excerpts were published by Joseph N. M. Jeffries in the "Daily Mail" and copies of the letters circulated in the Arab press. Excerpts were published in the 1937 Peel Commission Report and the correspondence was published in full in George Antonius's 1938 book "The Arab Awakening", then officially in 1939 as "Cmd. 5957". In 1964 further documents were declassified.
