Not illustrated. 1895 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER XXIV. WHAT HAPPENED ON THE RING-STRASSE. As Ichabod and the pert Nancy advance, Miss Randolph can also see that Mark has spoken truly; there is something like intense excitement visible in their manner. The young miss shows it in her face, while he looks stern and glowering. "What do you think! I've seen somebody!" exclaims Nancy, almost out of breath, her hat pushed back on her curly locks, her cheeks flushed. "The marquis?" says Amy, quietly. "No, but a man you dislike as thoroughly as I do that impertinent individual." "Indeed!" "You remember the fellow who kept staring at you in Constantinople? well, he's here!" "Only an accident, probably; he has never addressed nor insulted me, only stared rudely." "Wait until you hear my story." "We are dying with curiosity; proceed," says El Capitan, who has as yet never heard about this party given to rude staring, and desires further information on the subject. "We were walking on the Ring-strasse, enjoying the sights one never gets tired of in Vienna, when suddenly there was a commotion near by. Ichabod was for going to see what was the matter, just like a man, but I was afraid it might be a mad dog, or something of that sort, so I begged him to be careful. "Well, he left me for a minute standing beside that wonderful fountain we admired so much. Hardly had he gone before some one touched me on the shoulder; some one who must have been very near when Ichabod went away. I turned, and gave a little squeal; couldn't help it, I declare, when I saw the same man who stared so hard at you in Stamboul, looking me eagerly in the face. "' You are Nancy?' he said, and I nodded; for the life of me I couldn't find my tongue for once. "' You are her friend--Amy Randolph's?' he next said, and spoke...

Book Description
This book exposes Turkish policies concerning European Jews during the Hitler era, focusing on three events: 1. The recruitment of German Jewish scholars by the Turkish government after Hitler came to power, 2. The fate of Jews of Turkish origin in German-controlled France during WWII, 3. The Turkish approach to Jewish refugees who were in transit to Palestine through Turkey. These events have been widely presented in literature and popular media as conspicuous evidence of the humanitarian policies of the Turkish government, as well as indications of the compassionate acts of the Turkish officials vis-à-vis Jewish people both in the pre-war years of the Nazi regime and during WWII. This volume contrasts the evidence and facts from a wealth of newly-disclosed documents with the current populist presentation of Turkey as protector of Jews.

Book Description
An examination of why Jews promote a positive image of Ottomans and Turks while denying the Armenian genocide and the existence of antisemitism in Turkey. Based on historical narrative, the Jews expelled from Spain in 1492 were embraced by the Ottoman Empire and then, later, protected from the Nazis during WWII. If we believe that Turks and Jews have lived in harmony for so long, then how can we believe that the Turks could have committed genocide against the Armenians? Marc David Baer confronts these convictions and circumstances to reflect on what moral responsibility the descendants of the victims of one genocide have to the descendants of victims of another. Baer delves into the history of Muslim-Jewish relations in the Ottoman Empire and Turkey to find the origin of these myths. He aims to foster reconciliation between Jews, Muslims, and Christians, not only to face inconvenient historical facts but to confront, accept, and deal with them. By looking at the complexities of interreligious relations, Holocaust denial, genocide and ethnic cleansing, and confronting some long-standing historical stereotypes, Baer aims to tell a new history that goes against Turkish antisemitism and admits to the Armenian genocide. “[Baer] demonstrates not only his erudition and knowledge of the sources but his courage on confronting a major myth of Ottoman history and current Turkish politics: the tolerance and defense of Jews by the Ottoman and Turkish state.” —Ronald Grigor Suny, editor of A Question of Genocide “A very significant study regarding the origins of violence and its denial in Turkey through the empirical study of not only antisemitism, but also its connection to genocide denial.” —Fatma Müge Göçek, author of The Transformation of Turkey
