An account of the epic siege of the island fortress of the Knights Hospitaller by the Turkish Army of the Emperor Suleiman. The six battle scenes in the book depict the brutal fighting and acts of bravery by the 500 Knights who held out against 30,000 Turkish soldiers for four months.
Osprey''s Campaign title for the Battle of Malta (1565). The epic siege of the island fortress of the Knights Hospitaller by the huge Turkish Army of the Emperor Suliman is one of the most compelling stories in the history of the western world. The Turks amassed an army of 30,000 men, which doubled as the siege dragged on. The knights facing them totalled 500, along with 4,000 Maltese levies and 4,500 other troops. Tim Pickles describes how despite constant pounding by the massive Turkish guns and heavy casualties, the Knights managed to hold out.
