Strong recommend if you are interested in the history of international relations. We get coverage both of the official doctrine of defensive realism at the time along with its partial exceptions, the soft power outreach from Ankara to the Middle East, and the difficulties caused with the region due to some ideological and historical grievances as well as the complicated process of the ultimately peaceful annexation of Hatay.
One will find many familiar place names mentioned as former claims of the old national pact that some in Turkey wanted to still go for, as well as the reasons why such a push didn't happen. There is also a nice concluding chapter that does a bit of compare/contrast with the present day governments approach to the region.
