Demetrius Francus: Glorious Exploits of Scandenberg (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781728376561)

Glorious exploits of Scandenberg The book takes us back to the distant year 1480 when it was written and published in Latin. The English reader learns of the Prince or King of Albania, George Kastriot Scandenberg. A great strategist and true hero in defense of the freedom of his kingdom and people against the Ottoman invasion at the same time defender of Christianity and of Europe. All this is recounted to us with a smooth and precise narrative style as a true historian by Father Demetrius Francus. He is the first historical writer to have written and published the first book on the life and glorious deeds of Scandenberg. Thus by reading this book, the English reader becomes acquainted with a great character and a great strategist who was Scandenberg. Father Demetrius Francus was a native of the city of Drisht o Drivagsto of noble origin. Certainly born in that city but of which there is no date, so it is known that he lived in the XVth century. He chose religious life as Francescan order and priest. First in the service of John Catriot and then ourderf his so Scandenberg. After the death of the Prince, he moved to Venecia where he writes and publishes in Latin, the book on Scandenberg that we offer to the English reader which we hope will be satisfied. A book of history is worth more than any other book in which it narrates real events, which we have heard about, but have not had exact knowledge of them. So reading a history book lets us enter in story ourselves.
