Book synopsis

One of Harold Lamb's last uncollected works, this short novel -- a thrilling adventure spanning Turkey and Afghanistan, set in the time of the Crusades -- offers a glimpse into a time of barbarism and heroicism, and Christians and Muslims locked in war and kingdoms were won -- and lost -- on the battlefield. Features a new introduction by Lamb-scholar Howard Jones.

Harold Lamb was an American historian, novelist, and scriptwriter, best known for his vivid historical fiction and scholarly works on Asian and Middle Eastern history. His novels and short stories, often set in exotic locales like the Mongol Empire and the Crusader states, are characterized by meticulous research and fast-paced narratives. Lamb's biographies of figures such as Genghis Khan and Tamerlane brought these historical leaders to life for a Western audience. His writing blends action and adventure with a deep understanding of the cultures and histories he portrayed
