Jason Goodwin is a novelist, traveller and historian, and also writes the 'Spectator' column for Country Life. He has written about the Far East and about walking 2000 miles to Istanbul. Lords of the Horizons: A History of the Ottoman Empire, was described by Jan Morris as 'a high-octane work of art'. Time Out called it 'perhaps the most readable history ever written on anything'. His Istanbul-based series of historical thrillers began with The Janissary Tree, winner of the Edgar Award for Best Novel, while Yashim #3 The Bellini Card was chosen by The Sunday Times as one of the 100 best crime novels since 1945. Translated into over 40 languages, the five-novel series now has its own illustrated cookbook, YASHIM COOKS ISTANBUL: Culinary Adventures in the Ottoman Kitchen. Jason is a member of the Guild of Food Writers and sits on the committee of Headread, the annual Estonian literary festival.
