The Citadel of Saladin: The Epic of the Mountain That Became a Fortress
قلعة صلاح الدين: ملحمة الجبل الذي أصبح حصنًا
Fifteen chapters let the mountain, the stones, the moat, a pine tree and the moon speak about the fortress east of Latakia, from its Byzantine and Frankish builders and the rock-cut moat with its standing pier to Saladin's siege and entry in 1188 and its listing as World Heritage in 2006, closing with lessons for the architect.
