Making a run for the Turkic-Russian frontier. Turks Across Empires: Excerpt. Wednesday, December 3. These have been exciting times up here at the Borderlands Lodge. As I mentioned in my post from the other day. I spent the days before Thanksgiving attending conferences in San Antonio and Washington, DC, and had the good fortune to finally hold my book in my hands! It was a lot of fun, and a day that I wasn't always sure I would manage to see. The book is on sale on the website of Oxford University Press.

Jim Meyer's Borderlands: Dreaming in Ottoman
http://blog2.jhmeyer.net/2014/12/dreaming-in-ottoman.html
Making a run for the Turkic-Russian frontier. Saturday, December 13, 2014. I was at the Apple Store recently to get the battery on my Mac replaced. Apparently, if you burn the Mac for 18 hours a day for months on end, certain parts begin to wear down. I guess that's something to keep in mind for my advancing old age.

Jim Meyer's Borderlands: Christmas in Turkey
http://blog2.jhmeyer.net/2014/12/christmas-in-turkey.html
Making a run for the Turkic-Russian frontier. December 25, 2014. So, Christmas Day is pretty much an ordinary work day. That's okay, though. Indeed, because Santa Claus and a lot of other Christmas themed-stuff has been appropriated into New Year's celebrations in Turkey, I still saw a lot of familiar-looking decorations during those years. Even the plainclothes police. Get in on the act in Turkey. So, instead of going to work I'd relax at my apartment in Te. Gas canister New Year's Tree. What Im up to.
