The extraordinary character and career of Saladin are the keys to
understanding the Battle of Hattin, the fall of Jerusalem and the
failure of the Third Crusade. He united warring Muslim lands,
reconquered the bulk of Crusader states and faced the Richard the
Lion Heart, king of England, in one of the most famous
confrontations in medieval warfare. Geoffrey Hindley's sympathetic
and highly readable study of the life and times of this remarkable,
many-sided man, who dominated the Middle East in his day, gives a
fascinating insight into his achievements and into the Muslim world
of his contemporaries. Geoffrey Hindley is a distinguished medieval
historian who has written widely on many aspects of the period. He
has made a special study of medieval warfare and of sieges in
particular. His previous books include Castles of Europe, Medieval
Warfare, England in the Age of Caxton, Under Siege, Tourists,
Travellers and Pilgrims, The Book of Magna Carta and The Crusades.
His most recent publications are is A Brief History of the
Anglo-Saxons and Medieval Siege and Siegecraft.
