Book information
Description
Jerusalem: Franciscan Printing Press, n.d. (1980). - 40 pgs. The Ottoman Navy, also known as the Ottoman Fleet, was established in the early 14th century after the Ottoman Empire first expanded to reach the sea in 1323 by capturing Karamürsel, the site of the first Ottoman naval shipyard and the nucleus of the future Navy. During its long existence, it was involved in many conflicts and signed a number of maritime treaties. At its height, the Navy extended to the Indian Ocean, sending an expedition to Indonesia in 1565. This short survey covers the ships, organization, and uniforms of the navy through the First World War.
