"At the beginning of the nineteenth century, the Ottoman arms industry was self-sufficient.
But from the 1880s to World War I, German arms companies held a monopoly position
in the Ottoman arms market. How did Germany manage to conquer what had until then
been an extremely competitive market, where British, French and American firms had
been dominant for years? While acknowledging the importance of economic and political
factors, Arming the Sultan suggests that the main determinants of the German success
cannot be ascribed only to the market theory of supply and demand, but lie instead
in a range of manipulative instruments built on foundations that were formed through
close personal relations"--Jacket
