Rivers of the Sultan: The Tigris and Euphrates in the Ottoman Empire
Husain, Faisal H. (Assistant Professor of History, Assistant Professor of History, Pennsylvania State University)
In the early sixteenth century, a series of military campaigns between the Mediterranean Sea and Persian Gulf brought the entirety of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers under Ottoman control. This book offers a history of this rare political unification of the longest rivers in West Asia and its impact on the Ottoman state, provincial society, and the environment.
