Ottoman entry into war

[michaeldr]

Politicians (preferring to beat their own drum) only turn to history when it suits their purpose,

and usually their interpretations are highly selective.

One such example occurred this week and I will resist the temptation go further,

except to say that it did prompt me to look again at events in 1914 and early 1915.

 

Mustafa Aksakal has once more proved a useful source and his 'The Ottoman Road to War' is available online;
