''Magnificent . . . Important and hugely readable'' William Dalrymple, Financial Times

''Sweeping, colorful, and rich in extraordinary characters'' Tom Holland

The major new history of a diverse empire that straddled East and West.

The Ottoman Empire has long been depicted as the Islamic, Asian antithesis of the Christian, European West, when in reality, their multiethnic, multilingual, and multireligious domain reached deep into Europe''s heart. Recounting their remarkable rise to a world empire, Marc David Baer traces their debts to their Turkish, Mongolian, Islamic and Byzantine heritage. Upending Western accounts of the Renaissance, the Age of Exploration and the Reformation, The Ottomans is a magisterial portrait that vividly redefines the dynasty''s enduring impact on Europe and the world.
