In this collection of studies by James M. Powell, two related
centres of attention can be seen. One is the campaigns undertaken
by western Europeans in the eastern Mediterranean, chiefly in the
late twelfth and thirteenth centuries - the Crusades - the reasons
for them and manner in which they were organized and promoted. The
other is the Kingdom of Sicily under Frederick II, himself a
Crusader, and its society and economy, including its Muslim
population. A characteristic feature is the author's interest in
ordinary participants and the attempt to get behind the
generalizations of macro-historians to the extent that may be
possible.
