In LEGACY, we meet Turhan Türkoğlu and Abbas Hükümdar, victims of unspeakable poverty and cruelty, each of whom will walk entirely different paths in life. We come face to face with Halide Orhan, one of the greatest heroines of modern literature. In this volume, we witness the death throes of a decaying superpower, the Ottoman Empire, and the beginning of the modern era, marked by the horrors of World War I. Each of these three characters leave their indelible imprint on their Motherland.

Hugo N. Gerstl, international bestselling author, lived in Turkey during two of the most turbulent years of its modern history, and the love with which he writes this monumental saga is palpable. This volume, translated and published in Turkey as MIRAS, is one of only a handful of epics about Turkey by a foreign writer to be accorded the honor of publication by a respected Turkish publishing house.
