      Focusing on the life of John of Gaunt, this study explores the complexities of his political influence during a tumultuous period in England, including the Peasants' Revolt and the Hundred Years War. As a wealthy and powerful figure, Gaunt's actions and reputation made him both influential and despised. The book offers a fresh perspective on his role and the broader political dynamics of the era, making it a significant contribution to historical scholarship since the last major study over a century ago.

      The Wars of the Roses
    • A. D. 1522: Der 25-jährige Suleiman der Prächtige regiert mit eiserner Hand das Osmanischen Reich. Um seine Macht und seinen Einfluss zu steigern, beschließt er, die Insel Rhodos zu erobern - die Heimat des Johanniterordens seit 1310. Fortan belagern 100.000 türkische Krieger das griechische Eiland. Im Innern der bedrängten Stadt bereiten sich 500 Ritter unter der Führung des legendären Großmeisters Philippe de L'Isle Adam darauf vor, der Übermacht zu trotzen. Es wird ein Kampf auf Leben und Tod, ein Kampf, der vor dem Hintergrund des „Kampfs der Kulturen“ ungebrochene Aktualität besitzt.
