| Abstract: | As the title and subtitle of this novel attest, the author’s emphasis is on history. But let’s be honest: we didn’t need a novel to find out that Charles Xuereb is fascinated by history, especially the history of our country. We’re also, by now, familiar with his interest in how and why historical accounts can reach us in a distorted manner − we certainly know how much this malady motivates him to persist in his research, writing and publishing of articles and papers.
