This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1908 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER XXII SOME HISTORY AND A FEW POSSIBILITIES The "Bulgarian atrocities" of 1875-) centred the attention of Europe on the Balkans: There had been previous instances of murder and rapine, on a wholesale scale, in the Sultan's dominions, but the awful slaughter at the village of Batak, not far from the town of T'Barzardjeck, was the culmination of all. It was more than the world could stand, and within a few months, the regiments of the Czar were pouring across the Pruth, and the thunders of cannon awakened the echoes of the Rhodope passes. Plevna fell, after one of the most heroic defences in history; nothing could stand before the victorious Russians. They took Adrianople, and the road to Constantinople was open to them; their battalions were in position on the Bosphorus. It seemed as if no power could prevent the absorption of European Turkey by the "Colossus of the North." Then England stepped forward. It is difficult, nowadays, to realise the heat of resentment and nervous dread, with which the English people watched Russia's final succession of triumphs. Englishmen saw Constantinople turned into a Russian outpost, the Mediterranean a Russian lake, the road to India threatened. Led by Disraeli, a strong war-party dominated the nation's councils. English warships were ordered through the Dardanelles, and notice was served on Russia that she must be prepared to remit her demands. For a span of hours, the peace of the world hung by a hair. In the end, Russia backed down. The Treaty of San Stefano, dictated by Russian might, at the gates of the Ottoman capital, was abrogated, and Bismarck summoned the Congress of Berlin to consider an entire rearrangement of Balkan affairs. It is not necessary to deal at length with the results of the...

This, "The Story of a Latter-Day Adventurer," is the author's observations of the course of the First Balkan War (1912-1913), particularly the Battle of Lule Burgas (Oct. 31 to Nov. 3, 1912). The author is an eyewitness to that battle, the retreat, and the lives of the soldiers and citizens nearby. He does not pretend to an objective or complete viewpoint, rather he uses speculation, sensational description, and recreated conversations for dramatic effect. Valuable for its firsthand information, especially its descriptions of the commonplace events happening despite the battle.

"The loss of the Balkans was not merely a physical but also a psychological disaster for the Ottoman Empire. In this frank assessment, Ebru Boyar charts the creation of modern Turkish self-perception during the transition period from the late Ottoman Empire to the Turkish Republic. The Balkans played a key role in identity construction during this period; humiliated by defeat, the Ottomans were stung by what they saw as a betrayal and ingratitude of the peoples of the region to whom they had brought peace and order for centuries and whom they had defended at the cost of much Turkish blood. It induced a sense of isolation and encapsulated the destruction of the Ottoman Empire's military machine and sense of self-esteem by the Great Powers. This victim mentality was sustained by late Ottoman history-writing and by the historians of the early Republic, for whom history was an essential tool in the creation of the new Turkish national identity for the new Turkish Republic of the 20th century."--Bloomsbury Publishing.
