{"product_id":"the-janissaries-saqi-essentials","title":"The Janissaries (Saqi Essentials)","description":"From the fifteenth to the sixteenth century, the janissaries were the scourge of Europe. Their ferocious spirit allowed their masters to extend their conquests from the Danube to the Euphrates. Their power was such that even sultans trembled.\n\nBut by the end of the eighteenth century, they were more interested in trade than war. Ill-disciplined and arrogant, both rulers and ruled turned against them. Yet their political power was so extensive it took years before they could be suppressed.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0863567401\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0863567401.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Goodwin, Godfrey\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
