EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the operations in the Persian Gulf during World War I. Taken from "The Great World War - A History". Volume III, edited by Frank A Mumby, this map illustrates the British oil pipe guarded against Turkish attacks and their advance up the Tigris to Amara between January and June 1915. The image showcases the strategic importance of the region as it highlights key geographical features such as Basra, Euphrates River, Fertile Crescent, Iran, Iraq, Persia, Persian Gulf, Tigris River, and Turkey. The map also emphasizes how vital oil was even during that time period with its depiction of an oil pipeline running through the area. It is fascinating to see how this map served as a tool for military planning and decision-making during one of history's most significant conflicts. The intricate details on display provide insight into the complexities faced by both British forces guarding their valuable oil infrastructure and Turkish troops attempting to disrupt their operations. This print serves as a reminder of the immense challenges faced by nations involved in World War I across various theaters of war. It represents not only a historical document but also an artifact that symbolizes human ingenuity amidst conflict.
