The Fall of the Ottoman Empire: World War I in the Middle East, 1914–1920
29.99 €
In 1914, the European powers were sliding inexorably toward war, dragging the entire Middle East with them into the vortex of this devastating conflict.
In his book, Eugene Rogan presents the history of the First World War, revealing the consequences it had in the Middle East and the crucial - but little known to us - role the region played in it. The renowned British historian provides a lively and engaging account of the political intrigue and military battles that unfolded in the Ottoman lands from Gallipoli to Arabia. Unlike trench warfare on the Western Front, the fighting in the Middle East was dynamic and unpredictable. Before military fortune turned toward the Entente powers, the Turks inflicted crushing defeats on the Gallipoli Peninsula, Mesopotamia and Palestine. The postwar settlement led to the partition of the Ottoman Empire and laid the foundation for the irreconcilable differences that still tear the Arab world apart today.
