The capture of Jerusalem by the First Crusade in 1099 signalled the
beginning of an armed struggle in Palestine and throughout the
Eastern Mediterranean which lasted until the fifteenth century. It
was a war dominated by the building, securing and besieging of
castles rather than by pitched battles. Kristian Molin covers the
military history of the crusades on a wider geographical scale than
previous historians, taking in Armenia, Cyprus and Greece as well
as the Holy Land. He also shows the role of castles as
administrative, judicial and social centres in times of peace as
well as in war. "Unknown Crusader Castles" provides a fresh
perspective on the history of the crusades.
