From the publisher:
1462: a Walachian prince and his small army stand alone against the military might of the Ottoman Empire. But this prince, Vlad Tepes, is no ordinary man: he succeeds in driving the best-trained army in the world from his homeland through a campaign of relentless terror. Employing a scorched earth policy, along with ambushes, night attacks, and the tactics of fear – by which more than 20,000 Turks were impaled on wooden stakes – he earns his bloody nickname “Vlad the Impaler,” and ensures his own immortality.
This source book contains an historical overview of the period and a chronology detailing the important events and battles from the age of “Vlad the Impaler” and the Ottoman Turks. It tells the true story of this controversial figure – who was both hero and villain – against the rich backdrop of Medieval Balkan history.
