The Cambridge History of Turkey

"Fleet has edited an invaluable contribution to the history of Anatolia and the early years of the Ottoman state...the volume offers readers very important insights into the political, economic, and social context surrounding the eventual establishment of the Ottoman state and its first one and a half centuries of existence. Written by leading scholars in the field, the chapters go well beyond a narrative history of the region to discussions of historiography, migration patterns, art and architecture, and religious developments." --Choice
