Description:
"This is the first biography of the Albanian national hero Scanderbeg (1403-1468), published in England for more than four hundred years. Written by the late Harry Hodgkinson, a former naval intelligence officer who served under Ian Fleming, this engrossing and elegantly crafted book is an attempt to bring the reader closer to this famous historical figure and to set him in the dramatic context of Albania and its history." -- Book cover.
