TL;DR: Christians put up a good fight but eventually took that L in a big way.
Crazy to me that Mehmed was only 21 when he conquered it. I appreciated his respect of the other religious artefacts with a tasteful amount of razing.
Reading real history with all of these accounts from people that were alive at the time feels like a fantasy novel every time. It is so interesting. Glad so much of history is preserved.

Absolutely gripping and fantastic account of a brutal and moving story. Unbelievable at times and hard not to think you're reading a novel, then you remember it's all true and actually happened. Wow!! Read it!
