RECENT EVENT
Lepanto: The Battle That Saved the Christian West
Sunday, May 25, 2008
Maggiano's Little Italy
2001 International Drive
McLean, VirginiaOn October 7, 1571, the most important sea battle in history was fought near the mouth of what is today called the Gulf of Patras, then the Gulf of Lepanto. On one side were the war galleys of the Holy League and on the other, those of the Ottoman Turks, rowed by tens of thousands of Christian galley slaves. Although the battle decided the future of Europe, few Europeans, and even fewer European Americans, know the story, much less how close Western Europe came to suffering an Islamic conquest.
Christopher Check is the Executive Vice President of the Rockford Institute, which publishes the magazine, Chronicles: A Magazine of American Culture.
