The Ottomans: Khans, Caesars, and Caliphs by Marc David Baer
Although it is often considered an Islamic and Asian phenomenon, the Ottoman Empire (c.1288–1922) was multiethnic, multilingual and multireligious, stretching into Europe and Africa as well as Asia. In this sweeping history Baer traces the rise and fall of the Ottoman dynasty and argues that these powerful rulers, who saw themselves as inheritors of the Roman Empire, made important contributions, both positive and negative, to European religious and political development.
