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’ favor. 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. A sweeping narrative of battles and political intrigue from Gallipoli to Arabia, The Fall of the Ottomans is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the Great War and the making of the modern Middle East.

比较平铺直叙且足够通俗的政治/军事史,分析较少,但当故事书看的话还是挺好看~

今日中东诸多问题都可以追溯到奥斯曼帝国的崩溃。当年奥斯曼和大清,一个欧洲病夫,一个东亚病夫。只是奥斯曼离西方更近,受压也更早,类似戊戌变法的尝试也更早。到基马尔世俗化改革,基本西化,成了无所适从的国家,而中国仍以独特的文明立于东方。读完这本书,对英国人阴险(treacherous)、两面三刀(perfidious)和虚伪(hypocrisy)的印象进一步加深了。

伴随着一战,奥斯曼帝国最终变成了历史,原先横跨欧亚非大陆的帝国因为英法等国对于领土的企图使得帝国解体变得无可避免
