520 $aSince the Turks first shattered the glory of the French crusaders in 1396, the Ottoman Empire has exerted a long, strong pull on Western minds. For six hundred years, the empire swelled and declined. Islamic, martial, civilised and tolerant, in three centuries it advanced from the dusty foothills of Anatolia to rule on the Danube and the Nile: at the empire's height, Indian rajahs and the kings of France beseeched its aid.
520 8 $aFor the next three hundred years the empire seemed ready to collapse, a prodigy of survival and decay. Suddenly, at the beginning of the twentieth century, it fell. In this dazzling evocation of its power, Jason Goodwin explores how the Ottomans rose and how, against all odds, they lingered on. In the process he unfolds a sequence of mysteries, triumphs, treasures and terrors.
