The Ottoman Empire ruled the near East, dominated the
Mediterranean, and terrorized Europe for centuries. However, its
origins are obscure. The Beginnings of the Ottoman Empire
illuminates the founding of the Empire, drawing on Turkish, Greek,
Arabic, and Latin sources as well as coins, buildings, and
topographic evidence. Clive Foss takes the reader through the
rugged homeland of Osman, the founder of the Ottomans, placing his
achievement in the context of his more powerful neighbours, most
notably the once mighty Byzantine Empire, then in the terminal
stages of its decline. Foss then charts the progress of Osman's son
Orhan, until the fateful moment in 1354 when his forces crossed
into Europe and began their spectacular conquests.
