Description

In Europe the Mamluks of Egypt are remembered as so-known as ‘Slave Kings’ who drove out the Crusaders from the Holy Land; but they were way over that. Regardless that its frontiers slightly changed, the Mamluk Sultanate remained a ‘great power’ for 2 and a half centuries. Its armies were the culmination of an army tradition stretching back to the 8th century, and provided a model for the early Ottoman Empire, whose own armies reached the gates of Vienna simplest twelve years after the Mamluks were overthrown. This soaking up text by David Nicolle explores the organisation and tactics of those fascinating other folks.
