Title: Great Book on Subject of Constantinople and the year 1453
Review: I have read this book from cover to cover and found it to be accurate, insightful and well researched. I did not see any bias as some reviewers have stated. I believe the author has approached this very sensitive subject (especially to Greeks) with the aim to tell the story "as it was" without the usual Turkish/Greek propaganda.I will not go into every single detail of this book as other reviewers have done a good job in pointing out the specifics of the book. Where they believe the author has either done a good job or where he has failed. I will simply say that as a person of Greek heritage i did not find this book at all offensive or onesided as some have accused the author of being.I would recommend this book without any hesitation to anyone who is interested in learning more about the fall of the Byzantine Empire and the campaign to take Constantinople by the Ottoman Turks.
Is the review positive or negative?
