More about the book
At dawn, the Turks launched a general assault everywhere, with such a clamor of voices and noise of drums, shawms, and trumpets, and other military instruments that it seemed the world was coming to an end... Day after day, for four hellish months, Francisco Balbi de Correggio, an Italian soldier who had become Spanish, wrote this diary of the siege that the Turks laid on the island of Malta, whose control was crucial to halt the Ottoman advance in the Mediterranean.
