DESCRIPTION:
A fascinating book in near-new shape. Great addition to a collection.
charles H. Hargis said Five Stars. Good history. amazing having searched for a book on this leader but finding it out of my price range i happened to find a copy for £10 in Turkey of this book. It is a brilliant read. A man forgotten in the west but so properly idolised in turkey. Now I understand what all the fuss is about. This character is no Mussolini, Stalin or other jumped up tin pots but a man of the most amazing integrity and insight. It is amusing the way Lloyd George spend his whole career trying to undermine him but in the end with the defeat of the grekks fell from power due to his integrity. A tear passed my eye re. "Out of print in the U.S., but not overseas" according to Neil Anderson. This is the biography to own if you want to learn about the life and accomplishments of Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, founder of the modern Turkish republic. Every American especially should read this man's story. It will make you appreciate the real presidential leaders and men of courage that America once birthed. Today's generation of American presidents cannot hold a candle to the virtue and bravery of Mustafa Kemal. And the Turks are keeping his memory alive through their education system and in their strong and enduring family traditions. I bought this book new in paperback at a
