Guest Fadi Posted January 23, 2002 Report Share Posted January 23, 2002 The book in question finaly has been financed by Turkish associations, done by demand of a sub-group of "Istanbul University Alumni Association International"(In a term, Turkishforum.com) The book supplies and the orders passes from. http://www.turkishnews.com/cgi-bin/payment.cgi The informations about the book, are obtained from: Books@turkishforum.com After thinking about it, I was probably wrong. A statment does not make any sens. "He has done extensive research in archives in Washington, D.C., London, England, Paris, France, Moscow, Russia and Istanbul, Turkey." There is no way that a simpe tax payer visiting countries could do archival search without the support of an association or a Universitary institute... More particulary Russian and Turkish archives... How this man that is a simple "tax payer" was able as a simple man vising Turkey, to enter in the archives and search ? He has no graduation conserning Turkish language and less conserning ottoman Turkish and Ottoman script. How he was able to read Ottoman Turkish script and understand them ? How he was able to read Russian ? French ? Do he know all these languages ? How come ? I searched everywhere conserning his study or any institute he can be member of... or universities, or Ottoman chairs, of studies of Ottoman script... absent everywhere... Who teached him Ottoman script ? How he was able to pas trew the archive classification without any prior experiences etc... ? Nothing, Nothing makes any sens, I tried to order the book, the only place I have to pass from is Turkish associations... And more then this... read this. "The first 2000 books will be signed by the author for the Turkish Forum readers." His ordering site is half writen English the other half Turkish, and its said to be his personal web-site. Do he know Turkish ? All this is just a fake... You were probably right, he has been financed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
