Description
write a book review on the book: Moveable Empire: Ottoman Nomads, Migrants, and Refugees by Resat Kasaba. The review should provide an overview of the book’s contents, and should examine the following:
What is the author’s main purpose in writing this book?
What is the context in which the author is writing? (i.e. are there any major political, economic, or social events that may have influenced the writing?)
What is the book’s central argument (i.e. what is the main idea the author wants the reader to take from the book)?
What evidence does the author use to support the thesis? Does the author discuss the research they did for this book?
Does the author make a convincing argument? Why or why not?
What are the strengths and weaknesses of the book?
Has the book helped you better understand the subject?
Although this is a review of a single book, citations must still be made when appropriate (for example, when citing a quote or specific argument).
Here, students are encouraged to use the Chicago referencing system, either in-text or footnotes. Any essay found to have plagiarized content may receive a zero.
