Daybreak in Turkey Second Edition

"Daybreak in Turkey" by James L. Barton is a historical journey into the early 20th century Ottoman Empire, a period of immense change as it transitioned away from absolute rule. The book examines the relationships between different communities living in Turkey, like Turks, Armenians, and Greeks, and how their interactions were changing the country. The author explains that he wants to give a deep understanding of the challenges Turkey was facing because it was made up of so many different groups of people. This sets the scene for a look at the development of politics and the difficulties of making improvements in the Empire.
