In his introduction, Muhammed Murat Arslan, the author of the book, refers to Ömer Seyfettin’s Pembe İncili Kaftan, one of the great writers of Turkish literature, and states that Muhsin Çelebi, who “represents a spirit that does not violate the dignity of the state”, became a symbol during the preparation of the book.
