Ataturk, founding father of the Turkish Republic, was virtually unknown until 1919, when he took the lead in thwarting the victorious Allies' plan to partition the Turkish core of the Ottoman Empire. He quickly created his own legend and his own cult.
In this sequel to his acclaimed biography, "Ataturk," Mango provides a rich portrait, tracing the republic's development since the death of its founder and bringing to life the Turkish people and their vibrant society. 32 illustrations, 5 maps.
