Synopsis
For thousands of years Turkey has been at the crossroads of history. All of the civilizations that have flourished here have left magnificent monuments to their greatness, ranging from the ruins of Homeric Troy to the theatres and temples of the Graeco-Roman world, from the churches of Byzantium to the mosques and palaces of the Ottoman Empire. This is a guide both to the antiquities of Turkey and to the country itself, its people and their way of life. Beginning in Istanbul - formerly Constantinople - it explores the European and Asian provinces of Turkey, along the Bosphorus, the Sea of Marmara, the Dardanelles, the Aegean, the Mediterranean and the Black Sea, across the downs of Thrace and the mountains of Anatolia.
