Jackh, Ernest. Publisher: New York,... Date published: 1944 Format: Hardcover

Cloth with dust jacket. Very good copy in very good dust jacket. Jackh was a proponent of pan-Turkism and promoted a German-Turkish alliance before World War I. As a liberal and anti-Nazi he left Germany in 1933 for England and then the US. He ended his career at Columbia University. He was accused by contemporaries of being "more Turkish than the Turks" for his promotion of Turkish ethnic nationalism. [See Wikipedia (Deutsch).]
