Through a comprehensive examination of archival, literary, popular culture, media, and other sources, it unveils a traditionally overlooked--and even excluded--aspect of human history in a region that many do not associate with intoxicants, inebriation, addiction, and vigorous wet-dry debates.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHistorian Emine ?. Evered's account uniquely chronicles how the Turko-Islamic Ottoman Empire developed strategies for managing its heterogeneous communities and their varied rights to produce, market, and consume alcohol, or to simply abstain. The first author to reveal this experience's connections with American Prohibition, she demonstrates how--amid modernization, sectarianism, and imperial decline--drinking practices reflected, shifted, and even prompted many of the changes that were underway and that hastened the empire's collapse. Ultimately, Evered's book reveals how Turkey's alcohol question never went away but repeatedly returns in the present, in matters of popular memory, public space, and political contestation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEmine ?.
