Excerpt from Travels in Albania and Other Provinces of Turkey in 1809 and 1810, Vol. 2 of 2 Greeks, commonly presume every one so dressed to be a Doctor, and travellers are frequently accosted as such in the streets. The only exception to the general incapacity of these professors which fell under my observation was at Athens, and, by the way.

This book is about the principal writings that shaped the perception of Turkey for informed readers in English, from Edward Gibbon’s positing of imperial Decline and Fall to the proclamation of the Turkish Republic (1923), illustrating how Turkey has always been a part of the modern British and European experience. It is a great sweep of a story: from Gibbon as standard textbook, through Lord Bryon the pro-Turkish poet, and Benjamin Disraeli the Romantic novelist of all things Eastern, followed by John Buchan's Greenmantle First World War espionage fantasies, and then Manchester Guardian reporter Arnold Toynbee narrating the fight for Turkish independence.
