About Anscombe
Frederick F. Anscombe is assistant professor of history at American University in Bulgaria.
Reviews for The Ottoman Gulf: The Creation of Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar, 1870-1914
The nineteenth-century Persian Gulf has been much studied but, Anscombe stresses, always relying primarily on the British archives and therefore seen predominantly from the British point of view. He instead bases his work on the Ottoman documents and sees the Gulf from the perspective of Instanbul.... Excellent.
