The Battle of Alcazar, 1597 is a play written by George Peele, which is set in the historical context of the conflict between the Spanish and the Moors in the late 16th century. The play revolves around the story of King Sebastian of Portugal, who leads his army to a battle against the Moors in Alcazar. However, the battle proves to be a disaster for the Portuguese, and the king is killed in action. The play also features the story of Muly Mahamet, the Moorish leader, who is torn between his loyalty to his country and his love for a Christian woman. The play explores themes of love, loyalty, and betrayal, and features a cast of complex characters who struggle with their beliefs and values in the face of war and conflict. The Battle of Alcazar, 1597 is a historical drama that provides a glimpse into the political and social context of the late 16th century, and is a testament to Peele's skill as a playwright.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
