This meticulously researched book provides an accessible history of the nine crusades between 1096 and 1272 plus smaller campaigns across Europe culminating in the Holy League's victory over the Ottomans at the Battle of Lepanto. It covers the land the crusading knights lost and won, the kingdoms they established, the inspiration that motivated them, and the controversies that still surround them. It also features some of the larger-than-life knights such as Robert of Jerusalem, Godfrey of Bouillon, Frederick II, and Richard the Lionheart and their contribution to the holy wars. Illustrated with over 400 fine art images, and with expert text, this book is a beautiful and fascinating account of an extraordinary historical period.
Charles Phillips is an established writer of popular history and is a graduate of Oxford University. Among his many books are The Illustrated History of the Kings & Queens of Britain, and Castles, Palaces and Stately Homes (both Lorenz Books). Consultant Dr Craig Taylor is a lecturer in medieval history and a fellow of the Royal Historical Society.
