Cover of David Nicolle: Armies of the Ottoman Empire 1775 1820 (ePUB)

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 stunning full-page colour artworks by Angus Mc Bride, this fascinating text by David Nicolle explores the armies of the Ottoman Empire from 1775 until 1820.
