SUMMARY
"More than a century ago, Capt. Frederick Burnaby traveled the length of Turkey in the dead of winter to answer a single question: 'Were the Turks,' as he put it, 'such awful scoundrels?'...Burnaby inquired into the tensions between Christians and Muslims...showing admirable skepticism and fair-mindedness as he listened to each side plead its case....He also described Turkish society and customs. Best of all, for the modern reader, he took great pleasure in retailing the doings of his rascally Turkish servant, Osman.Burnaby, Frederick is the author of 'On Horseback Through Asia Minor' with ISBN 9780192825001 and ISBN 0192825003.
