Title: Going to Istanbul? Read this first

Review: Ghost Empire, a Journey to the Legendary Constantinople, Richard Fidler, 2017
It seems strange that most people are not more aware of one of the most significant and impactful leaders in the history of the west. Constantine founded the city of Constantinople, now Istanbul and transformed Christianity, a minority eastern cult, into the majority religion of the Roman empire. This act transformed the future direction of the “western world morally, spiritually and politically”. “Constantine is why the provinces of Europe, Russia and eventually the Americas would form themselves into the self-described Christian nation states that endure today”. But what of the city he founded, a city that while the rest of Europe endured the dark ages, poverty and illiteracy was “home to universities, law schools, hospitals with woman doctors, precious Greek and Latin manuscripts on philosophy, mathematics and literature”. The cities preservation of this knowledge, known as the Corpus Hermeticom, was critical in the birth of the European renaissance and is why we today have access to philosophy of Plato and the plays of Aeschylus. “The golden and copper domes of the city welcomed merchants from Venice, China, India, Africa and Russia”. It was global trading city a thousand years before our own age of globalization, yet the thousand-year history of this gorgeous city on the Bosporus is also mostly unknown today by most people.
Richard Fidler is a broadcast journalist from Australia. He has written an unusual history book in that it is a combination of travelogue and history. He takes his 13-year-old son on a trip to Istanbul and we accompany them as they visit Hagia Sophia while learning the history of this magnificent structure that has withstood earthquakes and invasion for over 1500 years. We walk the three and a half miles of the Walls of Theodosius and come to the very gate where the Janissaries finally broke through the cities defenses in 1453. We are swept along into amazing tales of history, tales of the rise of Christianity, Fall of empires, revenge, ambition, murder all the while walking the streets, experiencing a trip to this great city.

Title: When will we ever learn to Love our Neighbors as ourselves?
Date: Reviewed in the United States on February 20, 2018
Review: This book has been missing from my life far too long. It fits a big cap in what I had learned from other sources about World History after the death of Jesus relating to Rome, Constantinople, the early Popes, Constantine,
the Crusades,and the formation of the Ottoman Empire. I may have known that each division of the Abrahamic relegion lay claim to the Holy Land as theirs and took their turns at ruling it until the time when it became a part of the Ottoman Empire. But it did not occur to me how fair the Ottoman Empire wss to everyone who lived in there as compared with the other rulers thereof.
I owe a great debt to a friend of mine who brought this book to a lunch we had together. When i noticed that
this was about a father who took his son to visit Constantinople and shared what his knew about each particular part or event they encountered during their visit that I decided to buy this book for myself. It is a very fast and very interesting read, and filled large gaps in my knowledge about this very important part of homan history. We are still feeling the aftershocks of the fall of Constantinople

Review: The Australian journalist Richard Fidler and his son Joe made a journey to Istanbul in 2014. When I started this book, I thought "This is going to be some sentimental thing about father-son relationship." Wel it is not: this book gives a good overview of the basics of history the Eastern Roman Empire and focusses at the same time on the 21st century Constantinople and the politics of the Erdogan and his AKP. The 3 emperors that get the most attention are Constantine I "the Great", Justinian I "the Great" and Heraclius and his heroic fight with the Persian Empire, his restoration of the Roman Empire and the tragedy of the Muslim conquest. Also the sack and fall of the City in 1204 and 1453 get a lot of attention.
This book is an easy read: great for laymen as a first introduction to the history of the Eastern Roman Empire and Constantinople. And also for the scholar who wants a break from the "real" textbooks.

Title: Fun Read through the Great City
Date: Reviewed in the United States on January 20, 2018
Review: Bravo! Richard Fidler has written a wonderfully readable and fun history of Constantinople. Or more accurately, a lively chronological tour from the settlement by Constantine the Great through the fall of the city with Constantine XI. Fidler hasn’t written an academic history, but he’s certainly done his research and has a gift for historical storytelling that I wish “real” historians had. (My only negative quip about the book is that Fidler displays his bias in several places when he takes a sidetrack to write about religious belief. Not only do I think he’s wrong, but it seems out of place with the flow of the book and doesn’t add anything. But it’s his book and he can write what he wants.) Anyone looking for a fun history of a complicated subject or a non-technical introduction to the scope of the eastern Roman Empire would do well to read this book.

Title: Old Constantinople for the modern traveller
Date: Reviewed in the United States on November 5, 2017
Review: This is an excellent overview of what is to many the lost history of the Eastern Roman Empire, that carried on the light of learning and civilisation as the west fell into the dark ages.
My wife and I visited Istanbul at the suggestion of our grown up son a couple of years ago. Not knowing what to expect, we were mesmerised and enchanted by that amazing city: history and drama at every turn. We learned bits and pieces of this gigantic 1700 year old puzzle on the go, always raising more questions than answers.
If only we had been carrying Richard’s book! The Byzantine world would have opened to us like a rose in spring. Immensely readable, with stories and background to bring every monument, wreck and ruin, to vibrant, bloody life. Tragedy, pride, sacrifice, adventure and greed that makes Game of Thrones look like a fairy tale.
My only criticism is that I would have liked more illustrations. The postage stamp shots just don’t cut it.
Otherwise, fabulous. But this book and go to Istanbul.
