Thanks for the link Professor.

That's a big release - very useful for researchers. 

Any idea if the Turkish official World War One histories will ever be put on line? would be very interesting to see the Gallipoli and Palastine volumes if they were ever digitised.

we are not now that strength which in old days
moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are.

Some are online but I do not remember the source. Edward J.Erickson's books can be seen as the english summary of the Turkish sources.

Thanks for that....I will look at tracking down copies of Erickson's books at some stage.
