“The armistice, for Kemal, was not an end. It was a beginning. Undefeated in battle, he was more than ever undefeated in spirit. There would now be peace of a kind. But he knew that a just peace would have to be fought for and that the struggle would be hard and long.”
Kinross’s thorough study and absorbing biography of Atatürk, one of the great figures of the twentieth century.
