## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Well written, hard to put down
*by A***R on 3 August 2020*

I'm not one that gives 5 stars too often, but this book deserved it. It's really well written, and it captivated my imagination quite often.The book is showing to be a bit outdated with some facts written by Lord Kinross, but i can't really blame him for it, since that would be unfair; it's not a book from 2020, so you shouldn't expect everything to be inside as we know about it today (some uncritical thinking about some lesser known Sultans etc...).If you want an overview for the Ottomans, it's a great book to start. Good ratio of politics, military and internal affairs, while not getting bogged down in any one of them.Recommended

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A very, very good book
*by F***O on 15 March 2013*

This is a spectacular book. It gives an enourmous information, in not too many pages of a long period, describing the creation ofthe ottoman Empire, till his final demise, explaining the relationship with the other powers of time in a very clear an "non partisan"way. 15th and 16th centuries very densely and well explained.A book not to be missed.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hard work, but worthwhile
*by L***S on 10 April 2011*

This is a long book, covering a huge expanse of history - perhaps too much for a single book. The early stages are fascinating but, after Suleiman the Magnificent, when the decine begins, it becomes a bit of a drudge, following largely ridiculously incompetent and irrational Sultans, with the occasional bright spark to arrest the tide. Nevertheless, the story is intriguing and Lord Kinross does well to keep it in context in relation to the rise of the West. Overall, a thoroughly enjoyable read. Major drawbacks are the inadequacies of the maps, particularly as many of the names of places and regions are no longer in use.
