1943Very Good Turkish Modern cloth bdg. 4to. (27 x 20 m). In Turkish. 201 p., 7 military plans in the end-pocket (no missing). Türklerle beraber Süveys Kanalina. Translated by Mazhar Besim Özalpsan. Scarce First Edition. Only one copy located in OCLC: 69392693 (Bogaziçi University Library). Kress von Kressenstein was a German general from Nuremberg. He was a member of the group of German officers who assisted in the direction of the Ottoman Army during World War I. Kress von Kressenstein was part of the military mission of Otto Liman von Sanders to the Ottoman Empire, which arrived shortly before World War I broke out. Kress came from a patrician family in Nuremberg. His father, Georg Kress von Kressenstein (1840-1911), was a high court judge. Kress von Kressenstein joined the Bavarian army as an ensign in the artillery in 1888. In Palestine during the WW 1, Kress joined Djemal Pasha's army in Palestine as a military engineer and was later chief of staff. Djemal Pasha was given the job by the Turkish leader Enver Pasha of capturing or disabling the Suez Canal. This effort is called the First Suez Offensive, and it occurred in January 1915. Kress von Kressenstein was responsible for creating special boats for crossing the canal (pontoons) as well as organizing the crossing of the Sinai desert. While the desert was crossed with little loss of life, the British were aware of their approach and their attack on the Suez came as no surprise to the defenders. The Ottoman forces were repulsed easily and after two days of fighting, they retreated. Kress von Kressenstein's special pontoons were never used. More than a year passed when the Ottomans tried a second attack on the Suez. With Djemal Pasha directing affairs from his base in Damascus, Kress von Kressenstein led a larger Ottoman army across the Sinai desert, again. This attack ran into a strong British defensive fortification at Romani, 40 kilometres (25 mi) east of the canal. The Ottoman army prepared a major set-piece assault on Romani, scheduled for 3 August 1916. The attack was beaten off and again the Ottomans retreated back to their bases in Palestine. The British responded with an attack of their own. They captured some small Ottoman forts in the Sinai, built a railroad and water pipe across the desert and then launched an assault on the Ottoman fort at Gaza. Kress von Kressenstein was in charge of the Ottoman defences along with General Tala Bey. In the First Battle of Gaza (March 1917), the British were defeated, largely due to their own errors. In the Second Battle of Gaza in April 1917, the British were defeated again, the credit for this victory largely going to Kress von Kressenstein. The British removed their unsuccessful generals and replaced them with General Allenby. The Ottomans also replaced their top leadership, bringing in the former Chief of the German General Staff, General von Falkenhayn. Kress von Kressenstein was kept on as commander of the Ottoman 8th Army defending Gaza and he was also awarded Prussia's highest order, the Pour le Mérite. In November 1917, the British under General Allenby breached the Ottoman defensive positions at the Battle of Beersheba and the Third Battle of Gaza. Kress von Kressenstein was able to withdraw his defeated troops in fairly good order to new defensive positions in the north. In the middle of 1918, with the Ottoman-German alliance breaking down, Kress von Kressenstein was sent with a small German force to Georgia (Caucasus), that was protected by Germany after its independence. He helped to frustrate the Red Army's invasion of Georgian region Abkhazia. (Source: Wikipedia). This is the first and only Turkish translation of his memoirs in Palestine during World War 1.
1864Very Good French Modern 1/3 red leather bdg. with five compartments on spine. Demy 8vo. (21 x 14 cm). In French. [xi], 480 p. La Turquie en 1864. Bertrand Camille Collas, born in Bordeaux in 1819 (died 1898), was a sailor for 15 years before devoting himself to politics. His first stay in Turkey dates from 1841-1842 and the second from 1860. Thanks to his good knowledge of the country and its important characters, he was able to follow the progress of political, diplomatic and commercial developments since the accession of Sultan Abdulaziz. This study takes stock this evolution whose aim was to transform the Ottoman Empire into a modern state taking the example of the European model.
