The Fall Of Constantinople
Book (italiano):
The Roman Empire did not meet its end when barbarians sacked the City of Seven Hills, but rather a thousand years later with the fall of Constantinople, capital of the surviving Eastern Empire. The Ottoman Turks who conquered the city aslo known to us as Byzantium would force a tense centruy of conflict in the Mediterranean culminating in the famous Battle of Lepanto. The first book in a triptych depicting this monumental confrontation between a Muslim empire and Christendom, <i>The Fall of Constantinople </i>brilliantly captures a defning moment in the two creeds' history too often eclipsed by the Crusades.
