Publisher's Synopsis

With The Turks In Palestine is a non-fiction book written by Alexander Aaronsohn. The book is a personal account of the author's experiences during World War I, specifically his time spent in Palestine as a spy for the British forces. Aaronsohn, who was born in Palestine and had a deep connection to the land, provides readers with a unique perspective on the conflict between the British and Ottoman forces. He details his interactions with Turkish soldiers, his work as a spy for the British, and his involvement in the Jewish resistance movement. The book also delves into the political and social climate of Palestine during this time, including discussions on Zionism and the Jewish community's relationship with the British. With The Turks In Palestine is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in the history of the Middle East, World War I, or espionage.However, the German officers were by no means all incompetents. They realized (I soon found out) that they had little hope of bringing a big army through the Egyptian desert and making a successful campaign there. Their object was to immobilize a great force of British troops around the Canal, to keep the Mohammedan population in Palestine impressed with Turkish power, and to stir up religious unrest among the natives in Egypt. It must be admitted that in the first two of these purposes they have been successful.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
