  • 0

  The acclaimed author of Byzantium and the Crusades "offers a fresh take on this fabled but hidden civilization" across eleven centuries of history (Colin Wells). 
   
   
    
  For more than a millennium, the Byzantine Empire presided over the juncture between East and West, as well as the transition from the classical to the modern world. Rather than recounting the standard chronology of emperors and battles, leading Byzantium scholar Jonathan Harris focuses on a succession of archetypal figures, families, places, and events. 
   
   
    
  Harris's introduction presents a civilization rich in contrasts, combining orthodox Christianity with paganism, and classical Greek learning with Roman power. Though frequently assailed by numerous armies, Byzantium survived by dint of its unorthodox foreign policy. Over time, its sumptuous art and architecture flourished, helping to establish a deep sense of Byzantine identity in its people. 
   
   
    
  Synthesizing a wealth of sources to cover all major aspects of the empire's social, political, military, religious, cultural, and artistic history, Harris's study illuminates the heart of Byzantine civilization and explores its remarkable and lasting influence on the modern world.

  The Battle of Lepanto - The Last...

  The Battle of Lepanto, fought on October 7, 1571, stands as one of the most significant naval engagements in history. A defining moment in the struggle between Christian Europe and the expanding Ottoman Empire, it marked the climax of a centuries-long clash for dominance in the Mediterranean. Lepanto not only shaped the balance of power in the region but also signaled the beginning of the decline of the Ottoman naval supremacy. As one of the last great fleet engagements in history, the battle is remembered as a pivotal moment in the defense of Christendom and the resistance to Ottoman expansion. 
  At the heart of the conflict was the Ottoman Empire, a rising superpower that had established itself as a dominant force in the Mediterranean by the 16th century. Under the leadership of Suleiman the Magnificent, the Ottomans expanded their reach into North Africa and into Europe, pushing towards the gates of Vienna. By the time of the Battle of Lepanto, the Ottomans controlled much of the eastern Mediterranean, and their navy was one of the largest and most powerful in the world. However, the rapid expansion of the empire also stirred fears among Christian nations, who saw their way of life threatened by the growing Ottoman presence. 
  In response to this looming threat, Pope Pius V initiated the formation of the Holy League, an alliance of Catholic maritime states including Spain, Venice, and the Papal States. This coalition sought to halt the Ottoman advance and safeguard Christian territories in the Mediterranean. The Holy League’s formation was both a religious and political reaction to the Ottoman Empire's imperial ambitions.

  Why Is Nobody Buying My Book? 
  Are you an author pouring your heart into your craft, only to be met with silence? You’ve written, edited, and published, but where are the readers? If you’ve ever asked yourself, “Why isn’t my book selling?” you’re not alone—and this book holds the answers. 
  Why Is Nobody Buying My Book? It isn’t just a guide; it’s a roadmap for indie authors navigating the competitive and often overwhelming self-publishing world. Whether you’re struggling with pricing, marketing, or connecting emotionally with readers, this book equips you with the tools and strategies to stand out and succeed. 
  This book isn’t just a collection of strategies—it’s also my story. When I wrote my first book, Diary of Cliches, I believed I had something meaningful to share. What I didn’t anticipate was the crushing reality of low sales and self-doubt. I spent sleepless nights questioning my pricing, rewriting my book description, and wondering if my voice was ever meant to be heard. 
  And then it hit me. Writing isn’t just about the story you tell—it’s about how that story connects with your audience. Through trial error, and countless lessons, I discovered what truly resonates with readers. These lessons not only changed the trajectory of my books but transformed how I viewed my journey as an author. 
  Why Does Nobody Buy My Book? Takes you behind the scenes of that journey while giving you actionable insights, practical tools, and creative strategies to navigate the challenges of self-publishing. From shifting your mindset about money to crafting emotionally resonant stories, this book will help you not only sell books but create a lasting impact.
