In 1456, the world was about to change forever. After the fall of Constantinople, Sultan Mehmed II led a massive "unconquerable" army to crush the heart of Europe. Standing in his way was one man, an aging knight named Janos Hunyadi, and a ragtag army of peasants and monks. This is the incredible, heart-wrenching story of the Siege of Belgrade—the battle that saved Western Civilization.
