In his historical novel series THE ENGLISH
SLAVE, author David Eugene Andrews verifies the
truth of the personal memoirs of Captain John Smith.
He solves a 400 year-old mystery, the true identity of
the young Turkish noblewoman who received Captain
Smith as a slave.
Thoroughly researched from diaries, memoirs, and
other firsthand accounts, THE ENGLISH SLAVE tells
how the powerful Grand Vizier bought a slave at an
Ottoman town on the Danube and sent him to his
betrothed in Constantinople. Aisha, the sister of Sultan
Mehmet III and young widow of the previous Grand
Vizier, lives at a magnificent palace overlooking the
Hippodrome. She receives Smith, along with a letter.
Her fiancé claims he personally conquered the officer
of the Holy Roman Empire on the battlefield. Her new
slave is from the Kingdom of Bohemia and very rich.
Aisha can ransom the slave back to his family, keeping
the monies for herself.
The beautiful noblewoman knows Italian and learns
Captain Smith does, too. When she tells him how her
betrothed conquered him, her new slave vehemently
protests, for no one has ever defeated him in single
combat. Furthermore, he is not from Bohemia but from
England. And his fine clothes? He earned them by his
own efforts.
