註釋Associated Press journalist Schreiner recorded his personal impressions and conversations with important political and social figures in the Ottoman Empire in the aftermath of World War I, after covering the war from Constantinople. He was a witness to part of the Armenian massacre and thus provides firsthand information about that event, including at least one description of a large column of Armenian citizens on a forced march. He describes the personalities and opinions of such figures as Minister of the Interior Talaat Pasha, Minister of War Enver Pasha, and orator, reformer and feminist Hadileh Edib Hannym Effendi. Schreiner rides the Berlin-Baghdad railroad, devotes much space to discussing women in Turkey (much of the discussion comes from his conversation with Hadileh Edib Hannym), records opinions of WWI by minority Greeks and Armenians within the Ottoman Empire, and describes Germany's political presence in the nation.
