Product Information

The definitive history of the Ottoman Empire 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.

Reviews
" Osman's Dream is a deeply sympathetic,compelling and highly readable account of the rise and fall of an immenselycomplex and dynamic society which, at its height was the most the mostfar-reaching and the most powerful Empire the world had ever seen. But it isalso something more. For Caroline Finkel has not only told history of how aband of Turcoman warriors from eastern Anatolia came to dominate so much of theworld. She has also shown why that history matters, why today we are in noposition to understand, not merely the modern Republic of Turkey but alsomodern Islam unless we also understand the past, and the present perception, ofthe greatest and most enduring of the Islamic states."-- Anthony Pagden, Distinguished Professor of History and Political Science, UCLA, "Magnificent.... Forperhaps the first time in English, a genuine Ottoman scholar has written aclear narrative account of the great empire based mainly on Turkish rather thanhostile western accounts. The result is not only a revelation; it is a vital correctiveto the influential but partial and wrong-headed readings of the flagbearers ofintellectual Islamophobia." -- William Dalrymple , The Scotsman, ÝFinkel's¨ mastery of the historical literature is obvious: The sheer amount of information packed between these two covers makes it a landmark achievement., "The timing of Caroline Finkel's splendidly written Osman'sDream reflects the buoyant state of Ottoman scholarship. Neglected archiveshave been triumphantly mined by a new generation of scholars, and Finkel'sintimacy with the material makes this the most authoritative narrative historyof the empire yet published."-- Literary Review, "Magnificent.... Forperhaps the first time in English, a genuine Ottoman scholar has written aclear narrative account of the great empire based mainly on Turkish rather thanhostile western accounts. The result is not only a revelation; it is a vital correctiveto the influential but partial and wrong-headed readings of the flagbearers ofintellectual Islamophobia."-- William Dalrymple , The Scotsman, "An absorbing, monumental story of one of the mostreviled and misunderstood of all empires.... Osman's Dream is a marvelous achievement." -- BBC History Magazine, " Osman's Dream is a deeply sympathetic, compelling and highly readable account of the rise and fall of an immensely complex and dynamic society which, at its height was the most the most far-reaching and the most powerful Empire the world had ever seen. But it is also something more. For Caroline Finkel has not only told history of how a band of Turcoman warriors from eastern Anatolia came to dominate so much of the world. She has also shown why that history matters, why today we are in no position to understand, not merely the modern Republic of Turkey but also modern Islam unless we also understand the past, and the present perception, of the greatest and most enduring of the Islamic states."-- Anthony Pagden, Distinguished Professor of History and Political Science, UCLA, "[Finkel's] mastery of the historical literature isobvious: The sheer amount of information packed between these two covers makesit a landmark achievement." -- New York Sun, "How timely to have such a lucid, well-researched, andfair-minded history of the Ottoman Empire--and one too which treats it not assome exotic and alien world, but as part of our common past." -- Margaret MacMillan , author of Paris 1919, "Osman's Dream is a treasure for anyone who wants toknow exactly what happened when in the Ottoman Empire. Here at last is areliable history that takes into full account not only the work ofinternational and Turkish historians but also the writings of the Ottomansthemselves."-- Hugh Pope , author of Sons of the Conquerors: The Rise of theTurkic World, "Finkel has managed to produce a scholarly,lucid, judicious and enjoyable account of over 600 years of history in a singlevolume, which will surely be the standard work of its kind for many years tocome." -- Times Literary Supplement, "The timing of Caroline Finkel's splendidly written Osman's Dream reflects the buoyant state of Ottoman scholarship.

Well researched andbeautifully written, Osman's Dream will be essential reading for anyone whowants to know more about the Empire that ruled for centuries over so many ofour contemporary trouble spots--from the Balkans to the Arab world."-- Heath W. Lowry, Princeton University, "With this superb book, Finkel boldly covers newground in striving to show the Ottoman Empire from within.... Having spent 15years living in Turkey, Finkel is uniquely positioned to overcome the practicalhurdles to Ottoman research, but her real strength is in historiography: shehas a keen ability to extract salient observations from her sources even as sherenders their political motives transparent. The result is a panorama of theOttoman Empire to rival the best portraits of the Romanovs and Habsburgs, and amust-have for history collections." -- Booklist, "An absorbing, monumental story of one of the mostreviled and misunderstood of all empires....
