For over four centuries, the Ottoman Empire was one of Europe's most powerful powers, as well as the ruler of the Middle East. By 1914, it had been severely weakened and was being pursued by a swarm of predators. Following the Ottoman decision to join the Central Powers in the First World War, the British, French, and Russians devised a plan to finish off the Ottomans: an ambitious and unprecedented assault of Gallipoli...Eugene Rogan's fascinating work recreates one of the most significant but little-known fronts of World War I. Despite fighting back with great skill and ferocity against the Allied onslaught and humiliating the British both at Gallipoli and in Mesopotamia (Iraq), the Ottomans were eventually defeated, paving the way for the formation, for better or worse, of a new Middle East that has survived to the present day.
