A series of six talks
1: The Price of Constantinopleby DAVID WOODWARD
In the first of this series of talks dealing with the various attempts made during the First World War to secure peace short of total victory. David Woodward considers the story of a little-known Anylo-Turkish negotiation aimed at a separate peace which, if successful, would have opened communitions through the Dardanelles between the Western Allies and Russia. He explains why this apparently easy solution of one of the major Allied problems was doomed to failure.
