The Last Great Siege - Constantinople 1453

The story of the siege of Constantinople in 1453 is a rich one. Roger Crowley tells the story absolutely brilliantly here. So many fascinating (and at times heartbreaking) stories within the bigger story. A city with an unbroken history of over a thousand years faces its deadliest enemy.

And don't miss Roger's book on the subject. Narrative history at its finest.
