Abstract: Information about the Great Siege of Malta was disseminated in France through the publication of a pamphlet titled "Vray discours de la guerre ct siege de Malte par les Turcz". This pamphlet is made up of nothing other than a letter written by Antoine Cressin, Chaplain of the Order to Revered Granet, Grand Prior of the Order in France, on the 12th September 1565 - merely 4 days after the end of the siege. This letter tells of an eye witness account written with a concern for impartiality, even though they were justifiably angry at their enemy.
