The fight of the Bohemians against forces stronger than them in the Hussite War is one of the great feats of history. In the book, Warrior of God Jan Zizka and the Hussite Revolution, Victor Verney covers both the revolution and the life of one of the generals that made there victories possible. The reader is given a look at the political and social turmoil happening in Bohemia as the revolution rolled on and the military beat the odds time after time under the leadership of Jan Zizka. The author also gave a good in-depth look at the religious tensions that divided the Hussite communities. The book isn't bad but it isn't there are times when the writing is dry and can be a bit hard to read through. This book is good for anyone who is interested in European history.

Rating: 3/5 stars. Would recommend to a friend

Good for those doing any kind of research on the Hussites and/or the revolution. Some people and moments talked about. It's decent.
