Abstract

The book review discusses "Cyprus and Its Regiment in the Second World War" by Marios Siammas, highlighting the author's research on the contribution of Cyprus to the war effort. The book provides valuable insights into the formation, service, and demobilization of the Cyprus Regiment, debunking nationalist myths surrounding enlistment motivations. While the review praises the research achievement, it suggests improvements such as including a background chapter for context and further development on the impact of the war on Cyprus post-armistice. Overall, the review acknowledges the book as a definitive account of the Cyprus Regiment's role in the war and encourages further research on related topics. [Extracted from the article]
