Crescent and Iron Cross

Meer over het boek

The book explores the historical context surrounding the rise of the Young Turks and their ambition to unify the Ottoman Empire. It highlights Germany's paradoxical role in this endeavor, which ultimately led to the Armenian Genocide and widespread violence against various minority groups, including Greeks, Arabs, Assyrians, and Bulgarians. Through detailed analysis, the author examines the consequences of political ideologies and the tragic outcomes of nationalism and imperialism in the early 20th century.
