Excerpt from A Short History of the Near East: From the Founding of Constantinople (330 A. D. To 1922) Such factors as the various Balkan races and kingdoms have, however, received all the space possible. A just presentation requires that proper attention should be given to the capital events of former ages, despite a natural interest in rather recent happenings. It is more valuable to emphasize the im portance of Leo the Isaurian's deliverance of Constantinople from the Saracens than to dwell at length on the battle of Kirk Kilisse.
