An exciting, iconoclastic history of the final years of the Ottoman Empire, published for the centenaries of many significant WW1 events
The Ottoman Endgame is the first, and definitive, single-volume history of the Ottoman Empire's decade-long war for survival. Beginning with Italy's invasion of Ottoman Tripoli in September 1911, the book concludes with the establishment of Turkish independence in the Treaty of Lausanne, 1923. This is the first time an author has woven the entire epic together from start to finish - and it will cause many readers to fundamentally reevaluate their understanding of the conflict.
