Overview

In the marvelous book the Turks are depicted as both brutal and inept. This first hand account, written at the time of World War 1 shows the brutality of the Turks to all who were not Moslem. Their cruel methods and regard for nothing humane are visible as the author recounts his harrowing escape from Palastine, now Israel. The genocide of 1 million Armenians is also discussed in references to what might also happen to the Christians and Jews of the land. The Christians had lived peaceably with the Turks for hundreds of years and so too the Jews, yet the Turks inexplicably viewed them as enemies. This book is told with a real life presence, which was authentic and current at its time, not a history written some decades later. It is a short, engaging read.
