Eden To Armageddon: World War I The Middle East
Roger Ford
Formats & Editions
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 generations to come.
