King Vladislav, John Hunyadi, and a diverse army of Crusaders finally face off against the Ottomans led by Murad. This episode breaks down the order of battle for both sides, the personalities driving the decision making, and a blow by blow account of how the Battle of Varna went down. A brief appearance also, are the Battle Wagons of military history fame.

Please listen to Episode 21: P1 prior to this one.

If you know what happened, exactly, to the Papal Legate Julian Cesarini (in the show I mention how he was killed by Hungarians on their retreat) please shoot Frank an email at: [email protected]
