Men, not tactics or strategy, are the theme of this book. However good may be the plans of generals, there will come a time in every battle when the issue passes to the soldiers. Victory or defeat is in their hands and will depend at the crucial stage on their courage, discipline and determination to win. Men are the decisive weapon.
Although this book tells the story of men - Turks whose reputation on the battlefield is to be envied- it is also the story of all soldiers irrespective of nationality. As such it has universal appeal.
