This major contribution to Ottoman history is now published in
paperback in two volumes: the original single hardback volume
(CUP 1995) has been widely acclaimed as a landmark in the study
of one of the most enduring and influential empires of modern
times. The authors provide a richly detailed account of the
social and economic history of the Ottoman region, from the
origins of the Empire around 1300 to the eve of its destruction
during World War One. The breadth of range and the fullness of
coverage make these two volumes essential for an understanding of
contemporary developments in both the Middle East and the
post-Soviet Balkan world.
