Condition: New.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. On the night of 8 September 1775, while the Knights of Malta celebrated the anniversary of the Great Siege in the gilded Church of Saint John, a Maltese priest named Gaetano Mannarino led thirteen men through the dark streets of Valletta and seized Fort Saint Elmo. A second band took Saint James Cavalier with duplicate keys. At dawn, the red-and-white banner of Malta flew over the fortresses of the most celebrated military order in Christendom.The rising lasted three days. The countryside never came, the hoped-for Russian ships never appeared, and the Grand Master who had given his word of mercy broke it. Three men were strangled and their heads impaled above the city gate. Mannarino spent twenty-three years in the vaults beneath the fort he had captured.Drawing on the trial registers that overturned two centuries of official history, this gripping narrative reveals that the Rising of the Priests was far more than a clerical mutiny. Nobles, lawyers, physicians, fountain keepers and violinists rose together to defend bread, faith and ancient liberties against an empty treasury and an absolutist prince.A story of hunger, conscience, broken faith and the price of loyalty on an island ruled by strangers.
