ABOUT THIS BOOK: Ottoman Military Administration in Eighteenth-Century Bosnia is a provocative and original study of Ottoman administration in a provincial setting. Blending Ottoman and Slavic sources, this study examines in particular the Bosnian campaigns against the Austrians in 1736, along with the structure, personnel system, and financing of the Bosnian militia. Archival material, chronicles, personal letters and journals, and poetry help show how Bosnians and Ottoman officials cooperated to arrive at a shared sense of social order and mutual defence; and undermine later Balkan nationalist histories which tend to tell a story of Ottoman administrative incompetence against a backdrop of nascent independent movements. Series: The Ottoman Empire and its Heritage, Volume: 13. (Publisher).
