This illustrated volume presents the portraits of 36 Ottoman Empire rulers: from Osman I Gazi to Mehmed VI. The tale of their lives and major events that happened during their rule runs parallel to the development of a small- border principality into a powerful empire spreading over three continents, encompassing in its heyday an immense territory and a wide variety of peoples. Gradually, it passed through a long and painful disintegration and came to its inevitable collapse in the early 20th century.
What kind of people were the sultans? What did they look like? How did they act as statesmen and in their private life? What were their merits and vices?

The unbiased tale about the lives of these people, who bore the burden of power, the history of the Ottoman Empire - pathetic and proud, cruel and genuine, with its ups and downs, leaves an undeniable, although ambiguous, mark in the annals of humankind.
