About this book
Lord Eversley had visited Constantinople in 1855 and 1857, and in this history, first published in 1917 during the First World War, he tells the rise and decline of the Ottoman state in compact, popular form. He had earlier written The Partitions of Poland and turned to Turkey for the same reason, as another state that had almost vanished from the map of Europe.
His preface notes that the empire had lost its Christian provinces in Europe and its Moslem provinces in Africa, keeping Constantinople, a small part of Thrace and wide lands in Asia. A frontispiece and three maps accompany the text.
