Excerpt from The Turkish Empire Its Growth and Decay The favour with which, two years ago, my book on The Partitions of Poland was received by the public has induced me to devote the interval to a study of the history, of another State which, in modern times, has almost disappeared from the map of Europe - namely Turkey.
