Inhaltsangabe

Despite various studies on the development of crusading thought, the First Crusade itself has not been properly examined from this perspective. Drawing on a range of European chronicles and charter collections, this book discusses the launching of the First Crusade, the practical experience of the crusaders and the interpretations placed upon this experience by contemporary commentators. The author's other publications include "The Knights of St John in Jerusalem, c 1050-1310", "The Feudal Nobility and the Kingdom of Jerusalem, 1174-1277", "What were the Crusades?", "The Crusades: Idea and Reality, 1057-1277", and "The Crusades, A Short History".
