An illustrated and authoritative account of the Order of the Hospitallers of St. John of Jerusalem, from the earliest time to the present day. It traces its history from the early body of military monks under whose auspices a hospital and a church were founded in Jerusalem; follows them to the island of Rhodes, tells of their troubles there (through the seizure of the island by the Turks), and their subsequent possession of the Island of Malta, the government of which they administered until it was occupied by Napoleon in 1798; and finally ends with the work by members of the Order during the present war.
