He is the author of five books, including Eternal Dawn: Turkey in the Age of Ataturk and Sorrowful Shores: Violence, Ethnicity, and the End of the Ottoman Empire. He has published on a wide variety of topics related to history and politics in such publications as Foreign Affairs, New York Times, International Journal of Middle East Studies, Middle East Journal, Iranian Studies, Past & Present, and War on the Rocks.[2]
