TURKEY IN EUROPE. 
By ODYSSEUS. 
One vol., demy 8v0., with Maps, 16s. 
This important book, by an author whose knowledge of his subject 
would at once be recognised were his name upon the title-page, will, 
it is hoped, take rank as a standard work of reference on Turkey and 
the Eastern Question. After an amusing introduction, the book opens 
with an historical sketch on South-Eastern Europe before and after the 
Turkish conquest. Then follows an account of the Turks themselves, 
their origin and nomadic character, their language, their political and 
social organization. Considerable space is devoted to Mohamme- 
danism, the most important influence to which the Turk is subjected, 
and to the position of the Orthodox Church. The work then proceeds 
to work out the details of Turkish rule in chapters on the Greeks, the 
Bulgarians and Serbs, the Albanians and Vlachs, and finally the 
Armenians, who, though geographically Asiatic, have been so closely 
identified of late with events in Constantinople that their inclusion 
hardly needs an apology.
