Editorial Reviews

Product Description

At the close of the 18th century the Ottoman Empire still had huge military potential. It was a complex structure of military provinces, autonomous regions and virtually independent 'regencies'. The Ottoman Empire had a larger population than its land could actually support which resulted in bloated cities, migration to under-populated mountainous areas, widespread banditry and piracy. It also meant that Ottoman armies had a ready pool of military manpower. With numerous illustrations, including eight full page colour artworkss by Angus Mcbride, this fascinating text by David Nicolle explores the armies of the Ottoman empire from 1775 until 1820.


From the Publisher

Packed with specially commissioned artwork, maps and diagrams, the Men-at-Arms series is an unrivalled illustrated reference on the history, organisation, uniforms and equipment of the world's military forces, past and present.

1.0 out of 5 stars factually wrong, October 24, 1999
By A Customer
there were quite a few factual errors which defeated the purpose of my buying this book. it was too simplistic and slightly biased/written from a western point of view and not a academic study. author needs to look much more in detail to the Ottoman forces in the Balkans, Middle East and North Africa which showed quite many differentiating points as well as similiar.
