Albert, EdoardoTHE MAN WHO STOPPED THE SULTAN: Gabriele Tadino and the Defence of Europe An extraordinary account of how one man defied the most powerful ruler of his age and in doing so changed the course of European history. This is a fascinating history of crusading knights and gunpowder, of spies and tunnels, and of a crossroads in history when the medieval age gave way to the Renaissance. Weaves together the story of an ordinary man alive in an extraordinary time and performing extraordinary feats of military genius. Through the lens of his life we discover how military tactics and fortifications rapidly changed thanks to the discovery of gunpowder, and how Europe, divided by power-hungry rulers and religion, almost fell to one of the greatest rulers the world has ever seen, but was prevented by a humble engineer. Contains 8-page plate section in color.1 vol, 304 pgs 2026 UK, OSPREY PUBLISHING NEW-dj, available late January 2026 ......$35.00 discount: :15% rct ..see our 16TH CENTURY
