While the tactics and manoeuvres Alexios used against Robert Guiscard's Normans are relatively well-known, his strategy in dealing with Pecheneg and Cuman adversaries in the region has received less attention in historical scholarship. This book provides a much-need synthesis of these three closely linked campaigns - often treated as discrete events - revealing a surprising coherence in Alexios' response, and explores the position of Byzantium's army and navy on the eve of the First Crusade. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Marek Mesko\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3031262956\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783031262951\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave MacMillan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/15\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 425\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 1.00d","brand":"Marek Mesko","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44138786423039,"sku":"9783031262951","price":129.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_eb60c62d-860e-41ba-a180-32574340e8a7.jpg?v=1687901482","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/alexios-i-komnenos-in-the-marek-mesko-9783031262951","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
