Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Achievements of the Knights of Malta, Vol. 1 of 2 Though the days of chivalry are gone, the author of the following work trusts that the admiration of martial renown is still sufficiently general to secure some degree of favour for a history of the achievements of one of the most illustrious institutions that originated in knightly daring and pious zeal. Scarcely thirty years have elapsed, since foreign violence and political craft, combined with their own degeneracy, deprived the Knights of Malta of their independence, and ejected them from the insular fastness which remains to this day, and will remain, to the latest posterity, a monument of their military skill; yet, in that short space of time, so completely has their name been blotted from the records of the day, that their very place of retreat has become, generally speaking, a matter of uncertainty.
