2.0 out of 5 stars A review for a review!, November 24, 2002
By 
Jonathan Moore (Terre Haute, Indiana) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Fortification of Malta by the Order of St. John, 1530-1798 ([Publications] - Association for Scottish Literary Studies ; no. 9) (Hardcover)
The Great Siege of Malta in 1565 played a significant role in European history. The book like it says covers the fortification of Malta. The book desires and needs a review, therefore I will offer one. Sadly, this will not be a "five-star" review, but there will be some positive moments.

The positives (1) it was very useful for requiring hard to find information and data on the fortication on the island, especially when researching on the topic of the Great Siege of Malta in 1565 and (2) when I check out the book the libarian seemed impressed (perhaps a World War II buff that was misled), (3) It is a book with information, and (4) pictures.

The negatives (1) it does not have useful information, if you are wanting to know the details of the Knights of Malta or the Great Siege - I suggest reading Attard, Sire, Seward, or Bradford. (2) It was not very interesting to read for me.

I recommend the book for only people wanting to study military history on the island of Malta. If you want to know about military events or orders on the island - try some other books.
