Published in 1997, this is a translation of the Intnerarium
Peregrinorum et Gesta Regis Ricardi, 'The Itenerary of the Pilgrims
and the deeds of King Richard,' based on the edition produced in
1864 by William Stubbs as volume 1 of his chronicles and memorials
of the reign of King Richard I. This Chronicle is the most
comprehensive and complete account of the Third Crusade, covering
virtually all the events of the crusade in roughly chronological
order, and adding priceless details such as descriptions of King
Richard the Lionhearts personel appearance, shipping, French
fashions and discussion of the international conventions of war. It
is of great interest to medieval historians in general, not only
historians of the crusade. The translation is accompanied by an
introduction and exhaustive notes which explain the manuscript
tradition and the sources of the text and which compare this
chronicle with the works of other contemporary writers on the
crusade, Christian and Muslim. The translation has been produced
specifically for university students taking courses on the
Crusades, but it will appeal to anyone with an interest in the
Third Crusade and the history of the Middle Ages.
