A unique interpretation of the entire Ottoman experience in the Balkans
Peter F. Sugar is professor emeritus of history at the University of Washington.
"An interpretation of southeastern Europe under Ottoman rule from which few will fail to learn. As always, [Sugar] brings a fresh view to familiar material, and fresh material to familiar issues...his book is far more than simply a 'welcome addition to the field.' It is a unique interpretation of the entire Ottoman experience in the Balkans." Slavic Review "A useful, thought-provoking book...an excellent foundation for developing new approaches and for giving a new impetus and direction to the study of Southeastern Europe." The American Historical Review
