Reviews
"This engrossing history unfolds in the Middle Eastern theatre of the First World War, capturing the complex array of battles, brutalities, and alliances that brought down the six-hundred-year-old Ottoman Empire.... Rogan argues that the empire's ultimate demise was the result not of losing the war but of a clumsily negotiated peace. His balanced narrative unearths many seeds of current conflicts."-- New Yorker, "This book opens up a window on vital chapters in the shaping of the Middle East as well as the history of the Great War, bringing together vivid personal details with a broad historical panorama of human suffering and heroism, the incompetence and folly of the general staffs, and the scheming of the great powers."-- Rashid Khalidi , author of Resurrecting Empire: Western Footprints and America's Perilous Path in the Middle East, "Asthe Middle East is collapsing all around us, if you wanted to know where it allbegan and when, read this great book by a great Oxford historian."-- Fareed Zakaria , Fareed Zakaria GPS, Book of the Week, "A comprehensive, lucid and revealing history.... This book will surely become the definitive history of the war."-- The Times (UK), "Thoroughly researched and elegantly written by one of the leading experts on the region, The Fall of the Ottomans reminds us that the 1914-18 conflict was truly a world war with huge and continuing consequences. No one is better equipped than Eugene Rogan to handle the course and impact of the war in the Middle East and he does a superb job, telling a complex and multifaceted story with great clarity, understanding, and compassion. This timely and important work restores the Middle East to its rightful place in the history of the Great War."-- Margaret MacMillan , author of The War That Ended Peace: The Road to1914, "Thoroughly researched and elegantly written by one of the leading experts on the region, The Fall of the Ottomans reminds us that the 1914-18 conflict was truly a world war with huge and continuing consequences. No one is better equipped than Eugene Rogan to handle the course and impact of the war in the Middle East and he does a superb job, telling a complex and multifaceted story with great clarity, understanding, and compassion. This timely and important work restores the Middle East to its rightful place in the history of the Great War."-- Margaret MacMillan , author of The War That Ended Peace: The Road to 1914, "A fantastic, readable, and much needed study of the most chronically neglected of all of the Great War's participants: the Ottoman Empire. Informative and enlightening."-- Alexander Watson , author of Ring of Steel: Germany and Austria-Hungary in World War I, "[An] intricately worked but very readable account of the Ottoman theocracy's demise.... This is an extraordinary tale and Rogan recounts it well."-- New York Times, "Thisis a gripping, masterful account of World War One in the Middle East from thevantage point of the Ottoman Empire....

If you want to understand the underlying causes of conflict and violence in the Middle East in the last century, you will not find a better book."-- Avi Shlaim , author of The Iron Wall: Israel and the Arab World, "[Rogan's] account is geopolitical and military writing at its best - taut, anecdotal and extraordinarily researched. A tangled story, to be sure, one that both commands and rewards the reader's attention."-- Washington Times, "Admirable and thoroughly researched.... A comprehensive history of World War I in the Middle East."-- New York Review of Books, "Rogan has written an impressively sound and fair-minded account of the fall of the Ottoman Empire."-- Max Hastings , Sunday Times (UK), "[A] masterly history of the Ottoman empire in its final years....

Allawi , The Spectator (UK), "To have written a page-turner as well as an accurate and comprehensive history of the Ottoman struggle for survival is a remarkable achievement."-- Wall Street Journal, "[Rogan's]account is geopolitical and military writing at its best - taut, anecdotal andextraordinarily researched. A tangled story, to be sure, one that both commandsand rewards the reader's attention."-- Washington Times, "Thrilling, superb, and colorful, Eugene Rogan's The Fall of the Ottomans is brilliant storytelling.

Synopsis
In 1914 the Ottoman Empire was depleted of men and resources after years of war against Balkan nationalist and Italian forces. But in the aftermath of the assassination in Sarajevo, the powers of Europe were sliding inexorably toward war, and not even the Middle East could escape the vast and enduring consequences of one of the most destructive conflicts in human history. The Great War spelled the end of the Ottomans, unleashing powerful forces that would forever change the face of the Middle East.In The Fall of the Ottomans , award-winning historian Eugene Rogan brings the First World War and its immediate aftermath in the Middle East to vivid life, uncovering the often ignored story of the region's crucial role in the conflict. Bolstered by German money, arms, and military advisors, the Ottomans took on the Russian, British, and French forces, and tried to provoke Jihad against the Allies in their Muslim colonies. Unlike the static killing fields of the Western Front, the war in the Middle East was fast-moving and unpredictable, with the Turks inflicting decisive defeats on the Entente in Gallipoli, Mesopotamia, and Gaza before the tide of battle turned in the Allies' favour. The great cities of Baghdad, Jerusalem, and, finally, Damascus fell to invading armies before the Ottomans agreed to an armistice in 1918.The postwar settlement led to the partition of Ottoman lands between the victorious powers, and laid the groundwork for the ongoing conflicts that continue to plague the modern Arab world.
