| Summary | "Turkish Prisoners in Egypt" by the International Committee of the Red Cross is a historical account published in 1917 that documents the conditions and treatment of Turkish prisoners of war in various camps throughout Egypt during World War I. The book serves as a report from the Red Cross delegates who visited the camps from December 1916 to January 1917, outlining their observations on the prisoners' living conditions, food, hygiene, and medical care. The content of the book provides a detailed description of multiple camps, including Heliopolis, Maadi, and Abbassiah, detailing the architecture, accommodations, and overall welfare of the prisoners. It covers aspects such as the quality of food, clothing provisions, medical services, and recreational activities available to the prisoners. Furthermore, it discusses the behavior and morale of the prisoners, with testimonies from both the inmates and camp officials indicating that the prisoners were generally well-treated and satisfied with their conditions. The report provides significant insights into the humanitarian efforts made by the Red Cross during wartime, emphasizing the importance of compassion and respect for human dignity, even during conflict.
