A Clash of Empires: Turkey between Russian Bolshevism and British Imperialism, 1918–1923

Bülent Gökay's English-language monograph examining Turkey's position between Russian Bolshevism and British imperialism, 1918–1923.

Published by I.B. Tauris in London in 1997, Gökay's study analyses Turkey's position within the power struggle between Soviet Russia and the British Empire in 1918–1923. It relates indirectly to the collection, since the Caucasus was a central arena of that great-power rivalry. The 1918 Army of Islam campaign forms part of the British–Bolshevik–Ottoman background the book covers, though the catalogue entry notes no direct focus on it.
