Bristol as the US High Commissioner in the Ottoman Empire and later the Turkish Republic (1919-27). A key diplomat, Admiral Bristol's observations and recommendations helped to shape US foreign policy in the Ottoman Empire, out of which the modern Middle East emerged. His actions also laid the foundations of the strategic partnership between Turkey and the US, from the Cold War years through to the 21st century. In reporting and examining Bristol's official correspondence to the State Department, Hakan ﾖzoğlu paints an alternative picture of Turkey and the transition period from empire to nation state.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hakan ﾖzoğlu\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1474480373\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781474480376\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Edinburgh University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/13\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.08lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.56d","brand":"Hakan ﾖzo\u0026#287;lu","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43987584680191,"sku":"9781474480376","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0cb000d4-57d5-478c-8e75-c80ad07a48a5.jpg?v=1683289860","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-decline-of-the-ottoman-hakan-zolu-9781474480376","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
