The Ottoman Empire stretched from the Black Sea to the Indian Ocean
and the Atlantic. It included islands such as Cyprus, Crete,
Rhodes, and many smaller ones in the Aegean, Adriatic, and Black
Seas. These islands were its frontiers, and many of the battles
against Christian enemies were fought here; they were also bridges
to the outside world beyond the empire. They were often fortified
by magnificent castles, and sometimes served as bases for corsairs.
The chapters deal with significant events in naval history,
collective punishments by invaders, and many aspects of economic
and cultural life on the islands.
