Winner of the 1929 Newbery Medal, given by the Association for Library Service to Children for excellence in American children's literature, The Trumpeter of Krakow is Eric P. Kelly's work of historical fiction concerning the 15th century fire that destroyed much of Krakow. The Trumpeter of Krakow relates the life of Joseph Charnetski, a Polish noble who has fled to Krakow with his family, following the burning of his house by the Cossack-Tatars of Bogdan Grozny. Under orders of Ivan III of Russia, the Cossack-Tatars of Bogdan Grozny are searching for the Great Tarnov Crystal, a mysterious object which has been the cause of great conflict for many centuries and has been entrusted to the Charnetski family. What follows is a thrilling tale in which the Charnetski family fights to protect the crystal and restore order to their lives while numerous characters vie to control the crystal. The Trumpeter of Krakow has been heralded as one the greatest works of historical fiction for young readers ever since its first publication in 1928. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper.
