Yet another "Best of 2005" list, not that we're complaining...


Hugh Pope's Sons of the Conquerors has been chosen as a Best Book of 2005 by The Economist.
"In a quest that takes him from the grim battlefronts of Armenian-controlled Nagorno-Karabakh in Azerbaijan to secret encounters with Turkic-speaking Uighur nationalists in China, Hugh Pope seeks to unearth the common strands that link the 140m Turkic speakers across the globe. An ambitious book, and a highly accomplished one."
