With Bandit & Turk
By Tom Bevan
Illustrated by Ernest Prater (5 plates all present)
Published by S.W. Partridge & Co Ltd: London c1910 (undated)

"With Bandit and Turk by Tom Bevan is an early 20th-century historical adventure novel set during the turbulent period of the Balkan conflicts and the declining days of the Ottoman Empire. First published in 1912, the story follows a young British protagonist who becomes entangled in the political and military struggles of the region. As he navigates the complex landscape of Eastern Europe, he encounters both heroic resistance fighters (the "bandits") and Turkish forces, gaining a deeper understanding of the motives, cultures, and conflicts that define the era.

True to Bevan's style, the book combines fast-paced action with moral lessons and a strong patriotic tone. The protagonist's courage, loyalty, and adaptability are tested as he faces danger, betrayal, and shifting alliances. Through vivid descriptions and historical detail, Bevan brings to life a region on the brink of dramatic change, while also emphasizing themes of duty, honor, and the coming of age of a young man in foreign lands. The novel is both an engaging adventure and a reflection of British imperial attitudes of its time."
