Book Synopsis Reluctant Icon by : Ann Pottinger Saab
Book excerpt: Support of the Ottoman Empire was official British policy for decades after the Crimean War. But reports of alleged massacres by the Turks scandalized Britain in 1876. Reluctant Icon describes one of the most relentless social crusades of the Victorian era--one that successfully called the Disraeli government's Near East policy into question.
