I suggest you to read these books to gain information about new Turkiye from British writers. It will be interesting to look at the country and the nation from a different angle.

The Turks Today By Andrew Mango
The New Turkey- The quiet revolution on the edge of Europe By Chriss Morris.

Then we can talk about he information given.

i read ''BOZKURT''that's telling Ataturk's life...and i read few telling Ottoman's society,culture and lifestyle...im really impressed with the point of view they look us...they know us better than ourselves...and they can be neutral to the events...to get a different point of view,to get the foreigners ideas and belief about turkey and turks reading foreign writers is great..also andrew mango among the writers who know us well..
