Beschreibung

This is a comprehensive guide to the armies that fought a devastating and decisive conflict in the Eastern Mediterranean between the two World Wars of the 20th century. From the initial Greek invasion, designed to "liberate" the 100,000 ethnic Greeks that lived in Western Turkey and had done for centuries, to Mustafa Kemal Atatürk's incredibly efficient formation of a national government and a regular army, this was a war that shaped the geopolitical landscape of the Mediterranean to this day. It gave birth to the modern Turkish state, displacing millions and creating bitter memories of atrocities committed by both sides. Augmented with very rare photographs and beautiful illustrations, this ground-breaking title explores the history, organization, and appearance of the armies, both guerilla and conventional, that fought in this bloody war.

Zusammenfassung

There are very few books in English to focus on the armies of the Eastern Mediterranean in the violent aftermath of World War I. With revealing illustrations and scrupulous detail, this volume offers a comprehensive guide to the appearance, organization, and history of the units that fought a war that would shape the political and ethnic map of the region to this day.
