The book tells about Judeans - a unit of Jewish Zionists within the British army who helped drive the Ottoman Turks out of Palestine in 1917-18. He criticizes the discrimination against the Judeans in the ranks of the British army and says that the campaign 'was actually pivoted on the sons of Israel who were once again fighting the enemy, not far from the spot where their forefathers had crossed the Jordan under Joshua.'

“Rare account by the C.O. of the Judeans - a unit of Jewish Zionists within the British army who helped drive the Ottoman Turks out of Palestine in 1917-18. This is an extraordinary account of one of the most unusual units ever to have fought in the ranks of the British army. ‘The Judeans’ were a battalion of Jewish soldiers raised during the Great War specifically to serve in Palestine, which, then as now, was a politically and racially sensitive area. Set against the background of the 1917 Balfour Declaration, which pledged British support for establishing a homeland for the Jewish people in Palestine, this is the account of the Judeans by its outspoken (non-Jewish) Commanding Officer, Col. J. H. Patterson, who is palpably proud of having led the Judeans, which he rightly describes as a ‘unique unit’ whose formation was ‘unprecedented in our annals’...Patterson’s account of the victorious 1918 campaign that swept the Turks out of what is now Israel, Palestine and Jordan, is shot through both with his pride in his men, when he goes as far as claiming that the campaign ‘was actually pivoted on the sons of Israel who were once again fighting the enemy, not far from the spot where their forefathers had crossed the Jordan under Joshua’. Patterson is also - unusually, given the high degree of anti-Semitism then prevalent in Britain’s officer class - highly critical of his fellow officers for discriminating against the Judeans, and other Jewish settlers in Palestine. This book is a rare insight into a remarkable episode in Anglo-Jewish history, and should interest anyone wishing to know more of the background to current conflicts in the Middle East. It is illustrated with 22 photographs of officers of the Judeans and Palestinian scenes, including Biblical sites.”-N&M Print ed.

These selected paragraphs distill the contents and give you a quick look inside With the Zionists in Gallipoli: Look inside the book: Had they been backed up at the time of the first landing on April 25th, 1915, by the 'incomparable 29th Division,' one of the best the British Army has ever seen, together with the two French Divisions, with their hundred celebrated .75 guns, and the Royal Naval Division, no Turkish troops at that time in the neighbourhood could for a moment have stood up against them, and with our grip once established on the Peninsula nothing could have shaken us off—not all the soldiers in the Ottoman Empire. ...Never since the days of Judas Maccabæus had such sights and sounds been seen and heard in a military camp; indeed, had that redoubtable General paid us a surprise visit, he might have imagined himself with his own legions, because here he would have found a great camp with the tents of the Children of Israel pitched round about; he would have heard the Hebrew tongue spoken on all sides, and seen a little host of the Sons of Judah drilling to the same words of command that he himself used to those gallant soldiers who so nobly fought against Rome under his banner; he would even have heard the54 plaintive soul-stirring music of the Maccabæan hymn chanted by the men as they marched through the camp.

In February 1915, a small committee in Alexandria approved a plan of Zeev Jabotinsky and Joseph Trumpeldor to form a military unit from Russian Jewish emigres from Palestine that would participate in the British effort to "liberate" Palestine from the Ottoman Empire. The British commander General Maxwell met a delegation, led by Jabotinsky, on 15 March. The General said he was unable, under the Army Act, to enlist foreign nationals as fighting troops, but that he could form them into a volunteer transport Mule Corps. Jabotinsky rejected the idea and left for Europe to seek other support for a Jewish unit, but Trumpeldor accepted it and began recruiting volunteers from among the Jews in Egypt who had been deported there by the Ottomans in the previous year. The British Army formed 650 of them into the Zion Mule Corps, of which 562 served in the Gallipoli Campaign. The need on the Gallipoli peninsula for means to carry water to the troops was considered so urgent that in mid-April, a request was forwarded to Egypt for the Zion Mule Corps to be sent immediately, regardless of its lack of equipment. Its Commanding Officer was Lieutenant-Colonel John Henry Patterson, DSO, an Irish Protestant, and Captain Trumpeldor was Second-in-command; Jabotinsky served as an officer. The Zion Mule Corps landed at Cape Helles from 27-28 April, four weeks after being raised, having been stranded at Mudros when its ship ran aground. The corps was embarked in the same ship as the Indian 9th Mule Corps bound for Gaba Tepe and so a detour to Helles was ordered. The Zion Mule Corps was disembarked under artillery fire from the Asiatic shore, with help of volunteers from the 9th Mule Corps and began carrying supplies forward immediately."

"A Zionist without a copy of this first classic of a militant Jewish renaissance is like a Greek without his Homer. There cannot be the slightest doubt that in the traditions of the Orient, from the Mediterranean littoral to Tashkent and Samarkand, wherever Jews and Moslems live and thrive on their own soil, the story of the author and his Jewish paladins will be linked with those of Suleiman Malek, Iskander, and of the Colonel's countryman of the Lion-Heart. The exploits of Gallipoli, as told in this fascinating volume, will be sung at the shores of the Dead Sea and in the hills of Moab long after the present generation of Zionists will be gathered with their fathers....Col. Patterson tells us that his narrative of the Zionists of Gallipoli has been written during the enforced idleness of a month of illness....Our gallant Colonel, considered as a narrator, seems to have gone to school in Cairo with those improvisatori of the Arabian Nights' Entertainments, who enfold tale within tale, ad infinitum. For all that, no good-humored reader will feel like quarreling with the Colonel because his book reminds one of an autobiographical magazine series rather than of military reports. If the latter are more apt to be terse and to the point, books written in the style of the former are likely to be more readable; and if the personality of the author is spread all over the book, overshadowing in spots the fate of the regiment under his care, the reader will be glad to get acquainted with an attractive personality. His chief lineaments, as seen in his self-portrayal, are those of Sergeant George in 'Bleakhouse' - of a brave, obstinate, truth-telling, generous Briton, personal alliance with the fortunes of militant Judea the earnest of a national alliance to come." -The Maccab�an: A Magazine of Jewish Life and Letters "As an expression of admiration for the Jew as soldier and as man, and of strong sympathy with Jewish ideals one cannot speak too highly in its favor. The book is a worthy record of the gallantry and resourcefulness of the officers and men of the Zion Mule Corps, but it is none the less a monument to the kindliness and sympathy of the corps' non-Jewish commanding officer, the author." -The American Jewish Chronicle "It is the story of the famous Zion mule corps and its service in Gallipoli. This corps was the first Jewish military unit formed in 2,000 years and was composed of Russian born refugees from Palestine. Colonel Patterson commanded the corps and writes this account of the campaign as he saw it, its policy and the operations of war in execution of that policy." -Book Review Digest "There is electricity in each page, and fearless criticism provokes as much thought as the intrepid courage. Veteran soldiers have a right to be critics of military affairs; and when Colonel Patterson finds fault with any person or with anything, his phrases bite. They cannot be forgotten. And the motive-power behind them is the conviction that criticism cannot be too direct, because the lives of thousands are imperiled daily in the firing lines." -Saturday Review

Excerpt from With the Zionists in Gallipoli The narrative of the Zionists in Gallipoli has been written during the enforced idleness of the past month - a month which has been spent in endeavouring to recover sufficient health and strength to enable me to take a further, and, I trust, a more useful, hand in the Great Drama now approaching its climax. In the following pages I have "set down nought in malice," neither have I given a word of praise where praise is not due - and more than due. My relations with those with whom I came into contact were excellent, and on the very rare occasions when they were otherwise, it was not due to any seeking of mine, but, unfortunately, my temperament is not such that I can suffer fools gladly. My story is one of actual happenings, told just as I saw them with some suggestions thrown in, and if from these a hint is taken here and there by those in the "Seats of the Mighty," then so much the better for our Cause.
