The Rebirth of Turkey
by Clair Price
About the author
Clair Price was an American journalist and author whose name is now chiefly associated with The Rebirth of Turkey, first published in 1928. Public-domain library records and editions of the book confirm both the title and its original publication era.
In that book, Price examined the remaking of Turkey in the years following World War I, focusing on the rise of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk and the shift from empire to modern nation-state. The writing reflects the interests of a reporter covering major international change, with attention to diplomacy, conflict, and national identity.
Little easily verifiable biographical information about Price appears on the sources I could confirm here, so it is safest to describe the author primarily through this surviving work and its historical context rather than make stronger claims about a life story that is not well documented in the material I found.
