TEN BATTLES EVERY CATHOLIC SHOULD KNOW by MICHAEL D. GREANEY

Description

This new book offers readers richly detailed accounts of pivotal engagements–many little known in the West– in the centuries-long defense of Christendom against militant Islam. Join military historian Michael D. Greaney as, in gripping prose, he describes the struggle, primarily on Christendom’s eastern borders, against the dreaded Ottoman Turks in places in places such as: Manzikers, which marked the beginning of the fight; Wallachia, where Vlad II, the real “Dracula”, carried out a personal crusade against the Turks to such good effect that his name strikes terror down to the present; Mohacs, “The Tomb of Hungary,” and more.
