Non-Fiction History
The definitive book on Turkey's history, completely revised
and updated. Hugh and Nicole Pope have comprehensively
updated their definitive history of modern Turkey, Turkey
Unveiled. Tracing the rise of the country that transformed
itself in the twentieth century from an agrarian society to
an affluent, prominent republic, this new edition also
includes new photos, maps, and key information on Turkey's
new-found prominent position in current global affairs, as
evidenced by its vital role as a moderate Islamic
government during Operation Iraqi Freedom. Nicole and Hugh
Pope, who speak fluent Turkish and have reported from
Turkey for over a decade, provide a rich mosaic of
contemporary Turkey and its formative past. Combining
expert analysis with keen understanding of a culture long
misunderstood by the West, Turkey Unveiled provides
insights for both the general reader and the millions of
people who have made Turkey a top tourist destination.
