Reader's note

This charming little pocket-sized book is a well-loved classic by Ernle Bradford. If Hollywood is looking for an epic, here is the script ready made. In 1565 the Ottoman Empire was at its peak. Under their sultan, Solyman the Magnificent, the Turks had conquered most of Eastern Europe. The rulers of Christian Europe were at their wits' end to stem the tide of disaster. The Knights of St John, the fighting religious order drawn from most of the nations of Christendom, had been driven from their island fortress of Rhodes 40 years earlier. Taken out of history the Siege of Malta is worthy of heroic treatment. This vintage book is one among a bounty of stunning classic literature vintage books and obscure gems in our second hand bookstore!
