With the Turks in Palestine eBook Alexander 18881948 Aaronsohn
I loved this account of Aaronsohn's experiences in Palestine and elsewhere. Along with Lawrence IN Arabia (Anderson, Scott), it expanded my knowledge of the politics and tragedies that resulted in the multi-layered conflict we see today. Evidently the meddling and resource exploitation by foreign powers is largely responsible, especially the throttling of independence aspirations by France & Britain. Not much has changed unfortunately, at least as far as the hatred factor among Mid-Easterners of all stripes. Wonderful little addition to the library!Product details

With the Turks in Palestine eBook Alexander 18881948 Aaronsohn Reviews
An interesting prespective on the land of Israel at the biginning of the 20th century.
In the marvelous film the Turks are depicted as both brutal and inept. This first hand account, written at the time of World War 1 shows the brutality of the Turks to all who were not Moslem. Their cruel methods and regard for nothing humane are visible as the author recounts his harrowing escape from Palastine, now Israel. The genocide of 1 million Armenians is also discussed in references to what might also happen to the Christians and Jews of the land. The Christians had lived peaceably with the Turks for hundreds of years and so too the Jews, yet the Turks inexplicably viewed them as enemies. This book is told with a real life presence, which was authentic and current at its time, not a history written some decades later. It is a short, engaging read.
As one of the few first-person accounts of the Turkish control of Palestine, this is an enlightening, albeit brief read. It's greater value is as a supplement to Ronalf Florence's classic "Lawrence and Aaronson" which remains the definitive account of the NILI organization.
