I would like to read an English-language book about the late Ottoman Empire, and in particular its financial debt, who owned the debt, who owned the major assets, etc. Any recommendations? #ensonneokudun
@RahmiKula My wife (an İzmirli English teacher) and I moved to Bandırma a couple weeks ago. I would like to meet some of the local people, and would like to attend a meeting of the Bandırma Ticaret Odası. Is there a meeting coming up that I could attend?
@deesnider I've lived in Turkey most of the last 15 years. Walked across the damn place, by myself for chrissakes! ;-) You'd have to be a real moron to believe the overblown fearmongering that comes out of the US travel advisories.
