The Baron of Sant`Elmo, Knight of Malta, is ready to do anything to defend the castle, where his girlfriend is. But the Moorish forces are powerful and the castle burns. At this point the adventures move to African land.... The second part of this adventure continues in the book `The filter of the Caliphs`. About the Author: Italian writer, Emilio Salgari was born in Verona, Italy, on August 21, 1862, and died in Turin, Italy, on April 25, 1911. The son of a merchant family, as a young man he served aboard a ship that toured the Adriatic and Mediterranean coast, but there is no evidence that he made more voyages by sea, although he claimed that the exotic places that appeared in his books were based on sites that he had personally visited. Salgari began to prepare at the Royal Naval Technical Institute P. Sarpi in Venice, but did not get to obtain the title of captain that he longed for. His action-packed novels were many, but he is probably best known for creating the character of Sandokan. Despite his success, Salgari was one of the best-selling authors of his generation, he lived in relative misery that, together with the mental imbalance of his wife, the theater actress Ida Peruzzi, with whom he had four children, led him to commit suicide in 1911 by performing the traditional rite of Hara-kiri. Salgari wrote a total of eighty-four novels and countless stories, highlighting titles such as The Tigers of Mompracen or The Pirates of Malaysia. Several of his books have been made into a movie and his main character, Sandokan, has starred in a television series.
