Reviews
"Colin Imber's book is an excellent source for understanding the Ottoman Empire." (Cosmopolis, cosmopolis.ch, August 30, 2019), "Fills a unique niche in Ottoman studies as a source-based study of the evolution of Ottoman institutions across time. Wide-ranging and accessible, this enlarged third edition is an essential resource for specialist and non-specialist alike." -- Dimitri J. Kastritsis, University of St Andrews, UK "Thorough updates and a new chapter on the Arab provinces make this masterful study a must read for specialists and students of the empire, and an excellent choice for courses on the Middle East and the Islamic World." -- Gábor Ágoston, Georgetown University, USA "Colin Imber's book is an excellent source for understanding the Ottoman Empire." -- Louis Gerber, Cosmopolis "Colin Imber's book is an excellent source for understanding the Ottoman Empire." -- Cosmopolis, cosmopolis.ch

Preface to the Third Edition Chronology The Dynasty Recruitment The Palace The Provinces: Anatolia and the Balkan Peninsula The Arab Provinces The Law The Army The Fleet Some Conclusions.
Synopsis
This highly-praised and authoritative account surveys the history of the Ottoman Empire from its obscure origins in the fourteenth century, through its rise to world-power status in the sixteenth century, to the troubled times of the seventeenth century. Going beyond a simple narrative of Ottoman achievements and key events, Colin Imber uses original sources and research, as well as the rapidly growing body of modern scholarship on the subject, to show how the Sultans governed their realms and the limits on their authority. A helpful chronological introduction provides the context, while separate chapters deal with the inner politics of the dynasty, the court and central government, the provinces, the law courts and legal system, and the army and fleet. Revised, updated and expanded, this new edition now also features a separate chapter on the Arab provinces and incorporates the most recent developments in the field throughout., This highly-praised and authoritative account surveys the history of the Ottoman Empire from its obscure origins in the 14th century, through its rise to world-power status in the 16th century, to the troubled times of the 17th century.

    Heard about this product from a co-worker who said it changed his life. I picked one up for ~$180CAD. The QOL this will bring me has already paid for itself as I spend a lot of time in the field. No more spools of wire or 5gal buckets for commissioning. Shipping to Canada, no duty/import fees. Arrived 11 days after ordering (15 days sooner than estimated). Packaging was a little beat up but product arrived as described.
