The History of the Crusades (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780994376695)

Joseph Michaud's pioneering work on the crusades is rightly acclaimed as a major landmark in the field of medieval history and at the same time presents an exciting and fascinating read. Michaud's lengthy travels in the eastern Mediterranean gave him a profound and deep understanding of the region and its occupants. Perceptive and intensely curious, Michaud developed an extensive knowledge of the Holy Land and drew on a wide range of European and Arabic sources to inform his detailed history. The resulting multi-volume work has gripped generations of readers since the day it was published and its influence and impact remains undiminished. It is a must for any reader interested in the roots of modern conflict, human motivation and the clash of cultures and religions.
