Soldiers of Fortune; the Story of the Mamlukes
Sir John Bagot Glubb
For 250 years the Mamlukes ruled the most powerful empire in the Middle
East. Military mercenaries from the steppes of Central Asia, they were
the finest cavalry in the world, and they bequeathed to us some of the
world's most striking architecture. In their decline, their power was
destroyed by inflation and internal political crises. Includes 33 maps, 6
genealogical tables, 5 b&w illustrations, an appendix, bibliography
and an index.
