Book Description
This is a comprehensive history of the conflict between the Turks on the one hand and the Greeks and Slavs on the other. Told from a Eurocentric viewpoint, Mackenzie blames Turkey for the poor ways in which religious and ethnic minorities were treated by the Turks. From the introduction:"In the advanced stage of civilisation of the present era, we look with regret at the possession by the Moslem of the fairest portions of the world-of countries so favoured by climate, and by geographical position, that, in the early days of the earth's history, they were the spots most coveted; and that such favoured places should, through the Moslem rule, be barred from the advancement that has attended lands less adapted by nature for development. There are no countries of the earth so valuable, or that would occupy so important a place in the family of nations, as Turkey-in-Europe, Asia Minor, and Egypt, under a civilised and Christian Government.-BAKER. Exploration of the Nile Sources, Introductory Chapter, p. xxix.The Turk has got to reform three steps for his Christian subjects' one step. The chances are against him in so doing, because he has to reform against the grain of his religion, and does so with difficulty: while they, if not reforming by reason of the ritual and dogmas of their religion, imperfectly connected as these are in their minds with the morality which is its essence, are at least thereby placed in direct unison with the progress and civilisation of Western Europe.-LORD STRANGFORD. Eastern Shores of the Adriatic, p. 365.God knows no people could have been subjected to the Turkish Government without suffering great moral deterioration; but there is this distinguishing feature about the Christian population in Turkey, that they are a progressive people-that they are seeking to catch the light of Western Europe, to enter on a new path of civilisation and progress.-See Mr. COBDEN'S Speech, Debate on Turkey, May 29, 1863."
