Excerpt from Turkey, Ancient and Modern: A History of the Ottoman Empire From the Period of Its Establishment to the Present Time; With Appendix
Tar; empire of the Sultan has for ages been in vested with a high degree of interest. During its early progress, the mystery and vagueness of what little was known of its military organization, and the marvellous incidents which were constantly illustrating its annals, caused the nations to regard it with some what of the indefinite dread which aerial meteors were wont to excite. In more modern times, notwithstanding the termination of its career of conquest, the interest attached to it has become greatly enhanced by the romantic beauty of its capital, the chivalrous courage of its subjects, the important geographical position which it occupies in the centre of the ancient world, and by its having been regarded as the keystone of the arch of European politics.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the history and influence of Mohammadanism, tracing its origins from its founder Mohammad through the rise of the Ottoman Empire. Expanding on the religious, civil, and military tenets of the faith, the author examines how the unique principles of Mohammadanism produced an empire nearly as vast and powerful as that of the Saracens, only to decline in later ages as the basis of national prosperity shifted from war to peace. The author argues that Mohammadanism created a religious devotion that fueled military conquest yet simultaneously sowed the seeds of its own downfall by inhibiting social and intellectual progress. Ultimately, this book provides a comprehensive account of the profound impact Mohammadanism has had on world history and the enduring legacy of its influence.
