The fifty years between 1680-1730 were one of the most fascinating
in the history of Europe and in Ottoman history. A period of
coalitions and wars, climate changes, and natural disasters took
place. This previously unpublished chronicle contains valuable
information in various fields. It was written in Semi-Biblical
Hebrew by a Jewish rabbi residing in the Crimean Peninsula, and
includes insights on the political upheavals in the Crimean Khanate
and the Ottoman capital; the wars between the Ottomans and the
Russians, which he vividly describes; Persia and the Caucasus; the
fate of Jewish communities; epidemics and weather; and weapons and
customs. The book, a historical mine that reads like a sweeping
thriller, is now available in English for the first time.
