Turkey and the Rescue of European Jews
«
"Given the contemporary Turkish shift from partnership with to hostility toward Israel, a necessary reevaluation of this scenario has emerged. Bahar’s incisive study examines the Turkification policy of the new republic through the 20th century, including the problems of the Greeks (mostly expelled), the Armenians (mostly killed), and the Kurds (politically and militarily restricted). More scholarly than Stanford Shaw’s Turkey and the Holocaust (CH, Nov'93, 31-1690) and critical of Corry Guttstadt’s Turkey, the Jews, and the Holocaust (CH, Dec'13, 51-2220), Bahar offers extensive documentation and archival material in a more nuanced and balanced version of the Turkish role in the rescue of Jews. Summing Up: Recommended." - S. Bowman, emeritus, University of Cincinnati, CHOICE
