    Scanderbeg (given name Gjergj Kastrioti), the legendary 15th century warrior and leader, is the national hero of Albanians. With a small army under his command he successfully fended off several major Ottoman crusades against his homeland for about 25 years. His military campaigns are credited as being one of the main reasons that prevented Western Europe from falling under Ottoman occupation. For that Scanderbeg was recognized by Pope Pius II and Pope Nicholas V with the title Athleta Christi (Champion of Christ). This book, fist published in 1576, is based on Marlin Barleti’s work and publications on Scanderbeg. The first English version of Barleti’s book was adapted from this particular French version of Lavardin (by Zachary Jones Gentleman).
