The non-fiction book The Great Battles of the Crusaders 1097-1444 chronicles twenty key battles that took place in the Middle East and Europe as part of the longest religiously motivated military conflict of the Middle Ages. In this collective work written by six historians from Great Britain and the United States, the reader will find not only a detailed description of the battles themselves, but also valuable information about the troops of the parties that took part in the Crusades, about their weapons, equipment and tactics. Richly illustrated, with theater maps and detailed battle plans, the book is intended for both inexperienced readers and people who already have a broad knowledge of military history.
