The Knights of St.John: with the Battle of Lepanto and Siege of Vienna (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781519470645)

IN this little volume it has not been attempted to give a complete history of the Order of Knights Hospitallers, even from the comparatively late date from which the narrative begins; nor, indeed, has it been thought necessary, in a publication, of such slight pretensions, to enter into a full and; detailed description of the several great sieges around; which the chief interest of the story gathers. All that the writer has endeavoured to do is, to present the reader with as vivid a picture of events so memorable in the annals of the world as could be conveyed in a rapid and inelaborate sketch.
