Constantinople and the Bosphorus: Visions of the Orient. Translated from the French and Annotated by G. Rex Smith and Jonathan M. G. Smith

This is the first translation of three accounts by Pierre Loti (1850-1923) of his visits to Constantinople: a description of his brief visit in 1890; of his stay in 1910 in order to visit the tomb of his lover; and the account of his visit in 1913.
