Turkey In Revolution (1909) is a historical book written by Charles Roden Buxton. The book describes the political and social upheaval that occurred in Turkey in 1908-1909, known as the Young Turk Revolution. The author provides a detailed account of the events leading up to the revolution, including the decline of the Ottoman Empire, the rise of nationalist movements, and the growing discontent among the Turkish population. Buxton also examines the key figures involved in the revolution, such as Enver Pasha and Mehmed Talaat, and their roles in shaping the new Turkish government. The book offers a comprehensive analysis of the revolution's impact on Turkey and the wider Middle East, including the changes in political structures, the emergence of new ideologies, and the effects on the region's economy and society.
