Scope and Content

This volume contains the well-known history by Ramazanzade Nişancı Mehmet. It lacks the opening words and contains a chronological table of the Ottoman Sultans to 1115 AH (1703-04 CE), and a list of the Şuyuh ül-İslam from 1453 CE onwards at the end of the work. The text ends with an account of Menla Cemaleddin of Karaman. The binding is lettered 'Muhammad Kaminah. Tarikh i Muntakhab'. The manuscript was likely copied in the 18th century CE.
