There is a novel about the Siege of Malta that I strongly recommend called, "Angels In Iron." It is a gripping and sometimes graphically descriptive account of one of the great military events in history. While there are plenty of historical writings covering the Siege this brings to life some of the characters and individual personalities involved. Whether or not they were all real Knights is secondary in so far as we can identify with a realistic presentation of actual people as they endured incredible adversity and the source of their strength to accomplish equally incredible heroic feats. Each chapter is written in the style of a daily journal.
I have listed the book on my Amazon favorites on the sidebar and if you are interested in purchasing the book I hope that you would purchase it through my link as any commisions I make through Amazon is donated to works of the Order of Malta.
