Mountains are a defining feature of the Mediterranean landscape from the Sierra Nevadas of Spain in the West to the Lebanon Mountains in the East and everywhere in between. In this installment of the Ottoman History Podcast, Dr. John McNeill discusses the role of mountains in the history of the Mediterranean world and Ottoman Empire and gives reflections on his 1992 work Mountains of the Mediterranean World in light of new insights and scholarship.
