Osman's Dream: The Story of the Ottoman Empire, 1300-1923

by Caroline Finkel

Osman's Dream: The Story of the Ottoman Empire, 1300-1923 Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

The Ottoman Empire was one of the largest and most influential empires in world history. Its reach extended to three continents and it survived for more than six centuries, but its history is too often colored by the memory of its bloody final throes on the battlefields of World War I. In this magisterial work-the first definitive account written for the general reader-renowned scholar and journalist Caroline Finkel lucidly recounts the epic story of the Ottoman Empire from its origins in the thirteenth century through its destruction in the twentieth.
