Review # 1 was written on 2018-10-26 00:00:00 David Kaufman There are at least two books that I'm aware of that deal directly with The Turk, and countless articles and chapters devoted to it. By far, however, this book is the most detailed and seemingly most accurate. It compiles plenty of primary information along with relying on plenty of information to help get down to the bottom of one of history's great curiousities. Read this along with Tom Standage's more populist take for best results.
