Album recording World War 1914-1918 campaigns in the Middle East
Date: 1916-1917
From: Powles family : Papers
Reference: PA1-o-813
Description: This album relates to the British campaign against the Turks in north-eastern Egypt and Palestine, 1916-1917. Charles Powles compiled a detailed record of his experience of these events up to the taking of Jerusalem in albums PA1-q-604, PA1-q-605. This Album should be read in relation to them. They are more of a sequential record of the military campaign; this has a greater focus on people and scenic places. It begins with Cairo, then moves north and finishes in Jaffa. Jaffa was in control of the British forces by November 1917, but British possession of the town was not secured until late December, after the capture of Jerusalem. Because Jerusalem does not appear in this album, the Jaffa pictures were probably taken in November 1917. Quantity: 1 album(s) Album(s).
