"In The Turk in America, historian Justin McCarthy seeks to explain the historical
basis for American prejudice towards Turks in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
The volume focuses on fraudulent characterizations of Turks, mostly stemming from
an antipathy in Europe and America toward non-Christians, and especially Muslims.
Spanning one hundred and fifty years, this history explores the misinformation largely
responsible for the negative stereotypes of Turks during this period"--Publisher description
