Inc. Dunsterforce, Relief & Siege of Baku & Russo-Turkish War, inc. PoW of the Turks in 1921-22. "The greater part of this narrative belongs to the years immediately after the War, which were unsettled enough everywhere, but a sheer nightmare in the Near East. There are graphic pictures of the fantastic 'side-shows' of side-shows. Lt.-Col. Rawlinson's story of his imprisonment at Erzeroum is a magnificent tribute to British endurance & loyalty." - Falls.
