Book excerpt: The compelling story of Osman Ferid Pasha begins in the mid 19th century as a child fighting--and losing--against Russian incursions in the Caucusus, through the mass migrations to Istanbul and then his successes and failures in the Ottoman military. The war in the Caucusus, the struggles of Imam Shamil of Chechnya and the fall of the Ottoman Empire are all spotlighted as we come to admire this intriguing figure of the Caucasian Pasha.
