From 1095 to the end of the thirteenth century, the crusades
touched the lives of many thousands of British people, even those
who were not crusaders themselves. In this introductory survey,
Kathryn Hurlock compares and contrasts the crusading experiences of
England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales. Taking a thematic approach,
Hurlock provides an overview of the crusading movement, and
explores key aspects of the crusades, such as: - Where crusaders
came from - When and why the papacy chose to recruit crusaders -
The impact on domestic life, as shown through literature, religion
and taxation - Political uses of the crusades - The role of the
military orders in Britain This wide-ranging and accessible text is
the ideal introduction to this fascinating subject in early British
history.
