The famous English writer John Patrick Balfur on the pages of his book recreates the history of the Ottoman Empire from the foundation at the turn of the XIII -XIV centuries. Before the collapse in 1923, an authoritative orientalist, known in the scientific community as Lord Kinross, traces the formation of civilization of warlike nomads and the rapid elevation of the state of Ottomans to the greatest empire in world history, which extended from the Danube to the Nile and from Algeria to the Caspian, where art flourished, where art was flourished, Sciences and crafts developed, philosophical thought did not fade away and theology flourished. The author talks vividly and vividly about the daily life of touroskosman, creates accurate plausible portraits of the sultans, their wives and heirs, allows you to look behind the patterned gates of the harem. The historian pays particular attention to the confrontation between the brilliant ports with the empire of the Habsburgs and Russia, which, along with the liberation movement in the Balkans and mistakes in domestic politics, caused the collapse of the Ottoman Empire and the proclamation of the Turkish Republic
