The history of the Ottoman Empire-once the most powerful state on
earth, ruling over more territory and people than any other world
power-has for centuries been distorted, misrepresented, and
suppressed in the West. With this "original and wide-ranging" (Wall
Street Journal) global history, Alan Mikhail vitally recasts the
Ottoman conquest of the world through the dramatic biography of
Sultan Selim I (1470-1520). Drawing on previously unexamined
sources, and upending prevailing shibboleths about Islamic history
and jingoistic "rise of the West" theories, Mikhail's game-changing
account radically transforms our understanding of the importance of
Selim's Ottoman Empire in the annals of the modern world.
