{"product_id":"the-siege-of-vienna-john-stoye-9781933648149","title":"The Siege of Vienna: The Last Great Trial Between Cross \u0026 Crescent","description":"The definitive account of the last serious threat to Western civilization by the armies of Islam. The siege of Vienna in 1683 was one of the turning points in European history. It was the last serious threat to Western Christendom--so disastrous was its potential outcome that countries normally jealous and hostile sank their differences to throw back the Muslim armies and their savage Tartar allies. The consequences of defeat were momentous: the Ottomans lost half of their European territories and began the long decline which led to the final collapse of their empire; and the Habsburgs turned their attention from France and the Rhine frontier to the rich pickings of the Balkans. That hot day in September witnessed the last great trial of Cross and Crescent. \"Masterly...Stoye follows the action meticulously.\" --The Wall Street Journal\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Stoye\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1933648147\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781933648149\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Pegasus Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/06\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 274\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.14lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.32w x 0.95d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/15\/2006 pg. 943","brand":"John Stoye","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43988067287295,"sku":"9781933648149","price":36.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_78b1a0b1-8c06-4190-852a-8543a3669d2d.jpg?v=1683292433","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-siege-of-vienna-john-stoye-9781933648149","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
