really liked it

Ataturk was a competent commander, a shrewd politician, a statesman of supreme realism. But above all he was a man of the Enlightenment. And the Enlightenment was not made by saints.
That last paragraph on page 528 sums it up beautifully.
An excellent book, well researched and extremely fair.
