Caught By The Turks (1919)

Caught By The Turks is a memoir written by Francis Yeats-Brown, a British officer who was captured by the Ottoman Turks during World War I. The book provides a detailed account of his experiences as a prisoner of war, including his interactions with his captors, the conditions of his confinement, and his eventual escape. Yeats-Brown also reflects on the larger political and cultural context of the war, including the tensions between the British and Ottoman empires, and the impact of the conflict on the local population. The book offers a unique perspective on the war from the point of view of a British soldier who was forced to confront the realities of captivity and survival in a foreign land.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
