The Ottomans by Andrew Wheatcroft
The Ottoman Empire has long been an enigma. This book aims to unravel the mystery by looking at the Ottomans and their world in terms relevant to an eastern Islamic society, with practices that seemed barbaric to the West. The book also comes to terms with the West's expectations of the Ottomans.
