Unfortunately, no.

I've read "Crescent and Star" by Kinzer, "The Ottoman Centuries" and "Ataturd" by Kinross, "Decline and Fall of the Ottoman Empire" by Palmer, and the "Byzantium: The Early Centuries", "Byzantium: The Apogee", "Byzantium:The Decline and Fall" all by Norwich, "Age of Faith" and "The Reformation" by Will Durant..............Just to name the few that specifically discuss the Ottoman Empire.


Apparently he and I came to the same conclusion....
