Turkey in Revolution is a historical book written by Charles Roden Buxton and published in 1909. The book provides a comprehensive account of the Young Turk Revolution of 1908, which brought about significant political and social changes in the Ottoman Empire. Buxton, who was a British politician and social reformer, witnessed the revolution firsthand during his visit to Turkey in 1908. He was impressed by the spirit of the revolutionaries and their commitment to democratic reforms. In his book, he describes the events leading up to the revolution, the role of various political factions and personalities, and the aftermath of the revolution.The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a specific aspect of the revolution. Buxton provides a detailed account of the political and social conditions in the Ottoman Empire before the revolution, including the corruption and oppression of the ruling elite. He then describes the emergence of the Young Turks, a group of progressive intellectuals who sought to modernize the Ottoman Empire and establish a constitutional government.Buxton also discusses the various challenges faced by the revolutionaries, including opposition from conservative forces, the role of the military, and the question of minority rights. He provides a nuanced analysis of the different factions within the Young Turk movement and their conflicting visions for the future of the Ottoman Empire.Overall, Turkey in Revolution is a valuable historical account of a pivotal moment in the history of the Ottoman Empire. Buxton's firsthand observations and insightful analysis make this book a must-read for anyone interested in the history of Turkey and the broader Middle East.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
