"Many books have been written about the Crusades, but until now none has described in detail what it was like to take part in medieval Europe's most ambitious wars. This book draws on extensive research and on a wealth of surviving contemporary accounts to recreate the full experience of crusading, from the elation of taking up the cross to the difficult adjustments at home when the war was over."--BOOK JACKET.
