"Vlad the Impaler: The Real Count Dracula" by Enid A. Goldberg delves into the life of Vlad III, the historical figure who inspired the Dracula legend. Set against the backdrop of 15th-century Wallachia, the book explores Vlad's reign marked by fierce battles against the Ottoman Empire and his notorious reputation for cruelty. Known for his brutal methods of ruling and his penchant for impalement, Vlad's complex character unfolds as both a national hero and a feared tyrant. The narrative highlights the blurred lines between myth and reality, illustrating how his legacy influenced the creation of Bram Stoker's iconic vampire.
