I hope to travel to Greece and Turkey in the next year or two. I’d like to find one book for each country to get me started on their history. I know that some feel there is no such thing as brief on this subject but I need to start with baby step. Once I read these two I will get deeper into it. For now, this history flunky needs baby steps, lol. I’ll need them to be in English. I’d prefer something in Kindle/ebook form, but ‘tree books’ are just as good. Thanks in advance.

I am also looking for books about Turkey as I want to visit later this year. There is a book called “Istanbul” that I have on hold in Libby but I don’t know how good it is.
For now, I am reading books by the Turkish writer Elif Shafak (written in English) and watching Rise of Empires: Ottoman on Netflix.
