In 1095 Pope Urban II granted absolution to anyone who would fight
to reclaim the Holy Land. With God at their backs, the first
Christian crusaders embarked on an unprecedented religious war.
While addressing the contribution of flamboyant characters like
Saladin and Richard the Lionheart, Malcolm Billings also looks at
the experiences of the peasants, knights and fighting monks who
took the cross for Christendom and the Holy Warriors of Islam who,
after battle on battle, emerged victorious. He analyses the ebb and
flow of crusade and counter-crusade and details the shifting
structures of government in the Levant, which became the perennial
battleground of East and West.
