Attila The Hum
Attila the Hun was one of the most vicious men who ever
lived under the sun. His enemies were stunned by the
intricate traps he spun. With just a sword, never a gun,
he fought just for fun.
Being fearful, even his own soldiers would shun “The
Hun.” But when he took Rome he hurt no one – not the
Pope, not a priest, not a single nun – certainly not a married one.
