Abstract
Based on a comparative analysis of the Ottoman and Muscovite diplomatic correspondence, this book presents a historical account of the North Caucasus peoples from 1555 to 1605, when Russia expanded into the region. The North Caucasus becomes a contested borderland, with the Ottomans, Safavids, Crimean Khanate, and Muscovy competing for influence externally, and the Nogays, Cossacks, Dagestanis, and Circassians internally. This elaborate interplay of cooptation, persuasion, loyalty, and betrayal eventually led to the Ottomans and Dagestani allies expelling the Muscovites from the region.

Abstract
Bu kitap, Kuzey Kafkasya haklarının Rusya’nın bölge içlerine yayılmaya başladığı 1555-1605 dönemindeki tarihini, Osmanlı ve Moskova arşivlerindeki diplomatik yazışmaları karşılaştırmalı perspektifle ele alarak ortaya koymaktadır. Kuzey Kafkasya, dış aktörler olarak resme dahil olan Osmanlılar, Safeviler, Kırım Hanlığı ve Moskova’nın politik ihtirasları arasında bir sınır bölgesiydi ve Nogaylar, Kazaklar (Kosak), Dağıstanlılar ve Çerkesler de bu çatışmanın dahili unsurlarıydı. İşbirliği ve çatışma, boyun eğdirme ve isyan, sadakat ve ihanet temalı bu girift statüko, Osmanlıların, Dağıstanlı müttefikleriyle birlikte Rusları bölgeden çıkarmasıyla nihayet bulmuştu.
