In this podcast, Yiğit Akın is back to talk about his book <i>When the War Came Home</i> and how years of war transformed the Ottoman Empire. We discuss how the experience of the 1912-13 Balkan Wars reshaped Ottoman officials&#39; understanding of modern warfare and informed decisions taken during the First World War. We also discuss the social history of the war for ordinary Ottoman citizens and consider how the particularities of the Ottoman case reveal new insights about WWI and its legacy. </div> <br> </div><a href="https://www.ottomanhistorypodcast.com/2019/10/wwi.html#more">« Click for More »</a>
