Turkey, the First World War and the making of the Middle East. The
Great War in the Middle East began with the invasion of the Garden
of Eden, and ended with a momentous victory on the site of the
biblical Armageddon. Almost incredibly, the whole story of this
epic war has never been told in a single volume until now. In this
important new history Roger Ford describes a conflict in its
entirety: the war in Mesopotamia, which would end with the creation
of the countries of Iran and Iraq; the desperate struggle in the
Caucasus, where the Turks had long-standing territorial ambitions;
the doomed attacks on the Gallipoli Peninsula that would lead to
ignominous defeat; and the final act in Palestine, where the
Ottoman Empire finally crumbled. He ends with a detailed
description of the messy aftermath of the war, and the new
conflicts in a reshaped Middle East that would play such a huge
part in shaping world affairs for many generations to come.
