520    Four great princes, Henry VIII of England, Francis I of 
       France, Charles V of Spain and Suleiman the Magnificent 
       were born within a single decade. Each looms large in his 
       country's history and, in this book, John Julius Norwich 
       broadens the scope and shows how, against the rich 
       background of the Renaissance and destruction of the 
       Reformation, their wary obsession with one another laid 
       the foundations for modern Europe. Individually, each man 
       could hardly have been more different - from the scandals 
       of Henry's six wives to Charles's monasticism - but, 
       together, they dominated the world stage. From the Field 
       of the Cloth of Gold, a pageant of jousting, feasting and 
       general carousing so lavish that it nearly bankrupted both
       France and England, to Suleiman's celebratory pyramid of 2,
       000 human heads (including those of seven Hungarian 
       bishops) after the battle of Mohacs; from Anne Boleyn's 
       six-fingered hand (a potential sign of witchcraft) that 
       had the pious nervously crossing themselves, to the real 
       story of the Maltese falcon, Four Princes is history at 
       its vivid, entertaining best
