Gabor Agoston's book contributes to an emerging strand of military history, that examines organised violence as a challenge to early modern states, their societies and economies. His is the first to examine the weapons technology and armaments industries of the Ottoman Empire, the only Islamic empire that threatened Europe on its own territory in the age of the Gunpowder Revolution. Based on extensive research in the Turkish archives, the book affords much insight regarding the early success and subsequent failure of an Islamic empire against European adversaries. It demonstrates Ottoman flexibility and the existence of an early modern arms market and information exchange across the cultural divide, as well as Ottoman self-sufficiency in weapons and arms production well into the eighteenth century. Challenging the sweeping statements of Eurocentric and Orientalist scholarship, the book disputes the notion of Islamic conservatism, the Ottomans' supposed technological inferiority and the alleged insufficiencies in production capacity. This is a provocative, intelligent and penetrating analysis, which successfully contends traditional perceptions of Ottoman and Islamic history.

レビュー
"...in Guns for the Sultan Gabor Agoston has achieved a work which will no doubt become standard reference for a long time to come." -Christopher Deliso, balkanalysis.com
"Gabor Agoston's newest book is a much-needed addition to English language works dealing withOttoman military affairs...Readers interested in military technology, siege warfare, and Balkan or NEar Eastern history, should consider it for their libraries." - Military History, John P. Dunn, Valdosta State University
"the book merits high praise for its high level of research scholarship, and it will become the definitive work for Otooman military enterprise in the early modern period." - Jonathan Grant, Florida State University
"Physically, Guns for the Sultan is an attractive work, replete with maps, illustrations, tables, and an elegant dust jacket. The author is Associate Professor of History in Georgetown University, and overall this book matches readability with scholarship and usefulness. An impressive achievement." - Tom Lewis, Department of Defence, Australia, H-NET
"Guns for the Sultan is an important contribution to Ottoman military and economic history.... Agostan's work is a first-rate example of the possibilities and advantages or archival research as well as the wealth of important information buried in the files of the Ottoman Prime Minister's Archives." - Amy Singer, Tel Aviv University, Journal of the American Oriental Society

Europe vs Ottoman Military
2020年6月19日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済みAmazonで購入
This book is a great history source over the militarization of the ottoman empire and how they measured up to European military skills at the time. The book argues against the notion that Europe was so far ahead of the ottoman empire and does so by analyzing the military knowledge, organization, ammunition, firearms, and gunpowder stores that the country had in relation to Europe. It's a very interesting and educational read.

Through description of the military industry
2012年9月4日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済みAmazonで購入
This is one of my favorite ottoman histories and military histories, because it treats on areas of social and industrial organization that were otherwise inaccessible to me. Well done piece of research and to me, an entertaining read.

Very good, but ...

Guns for the Sultan is a very important book that deserves a wide success amongst historians specialized in military affairs. The research performed in Turkish archives is probably the first of this type in quality and quantity and the information given to the reader is absolutely priceless. A real must for anybody seriously interested in military technology. But two caveat are essential.
First. The author is not sufficiently familiar with both European ancient artillery and small arms. Just a few examples. Bronze bombards as large as the great ottoman' ones, and sometimes larger, were regularly produced in Europe during the second half of the XV century (see, for instance, Leonardo, Windsor 12647). None remains, as the cost of bronze was always high while its melting point was low and so it could be recycled conveniently and easily in new models: a number of huge wrought-iron pieces survives probably because it was too expensive to dismantle them.
As far as mortars are concerned it is well known that weapons firing effective bombs with high parabolic trajectories were commonly used only starting with the XVII century. Moreover it is incorrect to state, for example, that a 300 lb mortar shot projectiles weighting 300 lb (150 kg or else): the caliber for this kind of ordnance was nominal as the bombs, hollow and filled with gunpowder, were much lighter.
It is inappropriate to compare the composition of Ottoman bronze cannons with the composition of bronze given by Biringuccio whose information is often superficial and sometimes incorrect. In the evaluation of ancient cannon bronze it is also inappropriate to consider only the percentage of copper and tin as this alloy usually contains other elements, as zinc and silica, that have a significant influence on the final quality of the cast.
Second. The author, as far as the question of Ottoman technological inferiority is concerned, reaches conclusions that are amply contradicted by a number of Venetian state documents. The poor quality of Ottoman ordnance is, as a matter of fact, constantly reported since the second half of the XVI century: captured Turkish guns were amply used to cast new artillery but its bronze had to be purified and good English tin had to be added.
Captured Ottoman gunpowder was considered as "decayed" and used only to reclaim the expensive saltpeter.
