Early English newspapers have so far remained a source unused by the Romanian historians. This book is a first step to making know this material by producing an anthology of excerpts printed during the major conflict between the Ottoman Empire and The Holy League, called The Great Turkish War, beginning with the failed siege of Vienna in 1683 and ending with the peace of Karlowitz in 1699. The documents that are gathered in this work are constantly following the political and military situation, as information arrived to London at the speed allowed by couriers.
