DRACULA

Before the world turned Dracula into a creature of darkness, there was a real man behind the name-a warrior prince, a ruler of iron will, and a defender of Christian lands against the advancing Ottoman Empire.

DRACULA: THE CHRISTIAN PRINCE BEHIND THE LEGEND tells the true story of Vlad Dracula, also known as Vlad the Impaler, the fierce prince of Wallachia who stood in the bloody crossroads between East and West. While later legends buried his name beneath vampire myths and horror tales, history reveals a far more powerful and complicated figure: a Christian ruler fighting to preserve his people, his nation, and the borders of Christendom in one of Europe's most dangerous hours.

This book does not ignore the brutality of Vlad's age, nor the severity of his methods. He lived in a world of betrayal, invasion, assassination, and terror. Thrones were stolen, rulers were murdered, and nations were swallowed by empires. In that merciless world, Vlad Dracula became a terror to his enemies and a shield to his homeland.

To the Ottomans, he was a nightmare.
To traitors, he was judgment.
To his people, he was a prince who would not bow.

Dr. Michael H. Yeager presents the man behind the legend with boldness, clarity, and historical force. This is not the story of a vampire. This is the story of a Christian prince whose name was twisted by fiction, but whose stand against overwhelming darkness still echoes through history.

DRACULA: THE CHRISTIAN PRINCE BEHIND THE LEGEND is the unforgettable account of a ruler feared by empires, remembered by nations, and misunderstood by the world.
