Description
Driven by a combination of religious zeal, political ambition, and economic interests, the Crusades spanned centuries and continents, leaving an imprint on the cultural, political, and religious landscapes of Europe and the Middle East. From the initial call to liberate Jerusalem in the 11th century to the final battles for control of the Holy Land, this book traces the evolution of the Crusades and their impact on the medieval world.
Beyond the Holy Land, the Crusades unfolded in other theaters of conflict, including Spain, Portugal, and the Baltic region.
