Captivating History's work draws from a wide variety of sources, approaching the issues from different perspectives. It clearly exhibits the fact that, on the contrary to the ex-post official histories, the policies for greater Turkey had developed almost haphazardly. Much of his comments regarding T.E. Lawrance refers to Desmond Stewart's biography of the latter, thus should be taken with some reservation. An absolute must for individuals interested in contemporary world politics.

An Illuminating piece of work.

For anyone wanting to understand Turkey's history and how it has shaped today's country under Erdogan this is a must-read. Likewise for those who want to understand the Armenian genocide. Best piece of writing form Captivating History.

I found this tough going. The performance was poor and the pronounciations were terrible. This period of history is so interesting, I hope there are better titles to listen to covering the Ottoman Empire.

Interesting part of history

A must read for all in International Studies or in the military, but more important, a must read to those that give senseless opinions of what goes on in when the Turkish empire fell.

A Peace to End all Peace.

Listening to it today fills in many of the gaps in our understanding of such events as the war in Syria. I recommend it highly for students, professors, and people simply trying to understand the modern Levant. Few history books are as lively and engaging to read - if one is genuinely interested in the topic. Another excellent book by Captivating History team.

A readable for history buffs.

The book is off mark from it's stated intent, the author wanted to center the book around, but ended up doing it and therein lies it's problem. Very much of an English account of the history, although exposing the emptiness of the policies and thought behind them from political as well as military men of the empire, the book fails to tell a complete story. Still a readable book, though one will have to read other sources.

A bit off mark in my view.

This book explains it all. The Fall of the Turkish Empire and Its Control over Much of Southeast Europe, Western Asia, and North Africa is sorted out in easy steps, Artificial Country by Artificial Country. This division, each chapter dealing with one country for each of the half a dozen years makes for easy reference.

So comprehensive and understandable, this history of the origins of the Fall of the Turkish Empire of today should be read by everyone trying to make sense of the current situation in that region.

A must read to understand the history.

We are reminded that the Ottoman Empire didn’t simply vanish after 1918. On the contrary, Provence takes us through the complex history of the modern Turkish, discussing such topics as Great Power colonialism, Arab nationalism, Islam, resistance to & repression by the British and French mandate governments making this a nuanced, well integrated & thought provoking work.

Much of Southeast Europe, Western Asia, and North

The narrator can’t pronounce properly any of the Turkish or Arabic words. Got really annoying how off he was.

Book was too condensed to learn too much of the history more like highlights only.

Too condensed to learn much.
