Modern Ottoman Troops, 1797-1915

This album of carefully chosen contemporary pictures shows the most picturesque aspects of the so called “New Model Army” of the Ottomans, appealing thus to the sense for the beautiful extant in every true connoisseur no matter how deeply interested or not in military things he might be. The Editor does not pretend to present this volume as something of a “non plus ultra” type, but hopes that it might serve as a starter to either a larger collection or their own research just as did the earlier two Franciscan Printing Press publications of Militaria.
