"A feast of thoughtful and informative essays, this timely collection explores an age-old issue: the impact of the past on the present. Contributors -- whose names make a very impressive list -- consider... influences of the Ottoman Empire on its successor states in the Balkans and the Arab world. If, as the editor remarks, the studies 'aim more for broad themes than discrete details, ' they provide substance enough for thorough lessons in historical influence." -- "Choice"  Be the first to write a customer review
