The Ottoman Road to War in 1914: The Ottoman Empire and the First World War
by Aksakai. Mustafa
1-195720
Why did the Ottoman Empire enter the First World War, months after the war's devastation had become clear? Mustafa Aksakal's dramatic study demonstrates that responsibility went far beyond the war minister, Enver Pasha, and that the road to war was paved by the demands of a politically interested public.
