Die Widmung richtet sich an Theo Sommer. - With a Foreword by William Hale. Translated from the Turkish by Saliha Paker and Ruth Christie. - In englischer Sprache. - "The Turkish armed forces, over 800.000 strong, occupy a very special position in Turkish society. One of the largest armies in NATO, it is accorded a status enjoyed by no other European army. Its influence on the political life of the Republic runs deep. Three times - in 1961, 1971 and 1980 - the army has intervened in politics, on the third occasion to undertake wholesale constitutional and legal restructuring. 'Shirts of Steel' is a unique study of the Turkish army from the inside by one of Turkey's most distinguished journalists" (Klappentext). - Provenienz: Bibliothek des Journalisten und ZEIT-Herausgebers Theo Sommer (1930-2022; Nachlassexlibris auf dem vorderen Spiegel). Einige Seiten mit Anstreichungen Sommers. - Gutes Exemplar.
