Summary
The 'Assassins' are one of most spectacular legends of medieval history. This book traces the origins of the sect out of the schisms within the early Islamic religion and examines the impact of Hasan-i Sabbah, its founder, and Sinan - the legendary 'Old Man of the Mountain'. It discovers how the myths surrounding the assassins have developed.
