In June 1410, King Wladislaw Jagiello of Poland invaded the Order's territory with a powerful allied army that included all of the Teutonic Knights' enemies: Poles, Lithuanians, Russians, Bohemians, Hungarians, Tatars, and Cossacks. This book recounts how, when the armies clashed in the wooded hills near the small village of Tannenberg, the Teutonic Knights suffered a disastrous defeat from which their Order never recovered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eThe authors:\u003c\/strong\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStephen Turnbull\u003c\/strong\u003e is recognized as one of the world's foremost military historians of the medieval and early modern periods. He first rose to prominence thanks to his 1977 book, *The Samurai: A Military History*. Since then, he has achieved equal fame writing on European military subjects and has published 30 books. He has always tried to concentrate on the less familiar areas of military history, particularly such subjects as Korea, Eastern Europe, the Baltic States, and the Teutonic Knights. Stephen Turnbull earned his first degree from the University of Cambridge and a doctorate from the University of Leeds for his work on Japanese religious history. He has traveled extensively in Europe and the Far East and also runs a widely used picture library. His work has been recognized by receiving the British Association for Japanese Studies' Canon Award and the Japan Festival Literary Award. He currently divides his time between lecturing on Japanese religion at the University of Leeds and writing. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRichard Hook\u003c\/strong\u003e was born in 1938 and trained at Reigate College of Art.
