Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. An exciting narrative recounting the incredible true story of the Knights of St. John, who, after the fall of the Kingdom of Jerusalem to Muslim forces, became Sea-Kings of the Mediterranean, an elite naval force on a divine mission to defend Christendom from the encroaching Ottoman Empire. Conducted as a series of historical and literary vignettes, the author brings to life the forgotten deeds and forgotten heroes of these warrior-monks, the spiritual and military forerunners of the iconic Knights Templar.
