Good, but for a student...

I think that for a student studying this particular area of history that there should be more general facts about British withdrawal from Palestine, it is in the AS Level OCR course. Although full of detail, in my opinion some of the details are unnecessary and there should be a more general focus: why did Britain control Palestine? Exactly what made the British withdraw?
