Suleiman the Magnificent and the Story of Istanbul
Julia Marshall
Hood Hood Books, paperback, 48 pp.
Near the end of his life, Suleiman the Magnificent received three ambassadors from Europe. With one of them, Hungary's de Busbeq, he developed a remarkable friendship, spending many hours with him and telling him of his life and rule. De Busbeq, upon his return, wrote a memoir of his conversations with the Sultan. This is a retelling of Suleiman's story and of the time the two men spent together. A wonderful introduction to the golden age of Ottoman history. For grades 5-8.
