After World War I and the dissolution of the Ottoman Empire, diplomat Fahreddin Reşad Bey (also known as Rumbeyoğlu Fahreddin Bey or Rumbeyoglu Fahr al-Din Bey, 1867–1943) and Mehmed Nâbi Bey (1868–1924), who served as Minister of Foreign Affairs beginning in October 1918, released several government publications about foreign affairs administration in former Ottoman territories and border regions at the conclusion of the war. These publications were based on documents held at the state archives.

This work compiles the history of Bahrain from the Anglo-Persian capture of Qeshm in 1622 to 1917, focusing on the British protectorate and their relations with the Ottoman Empire. The text is written in both Ottoman and French.
