Editorial Reviews
Review
"The Crusades first appeared in English translation in 1972 and was widely acclaimed both as a work of scholarship and as a teaching instrument that brilliantly encompassed within a single comprehensive volume the history of the crusades....[The new edition] will continue to provide the basic foundation for beginners and advanced students alike of the subject in an authoritative, orderly, and judicious manner."--History: Reviews of New Books
"Many have considered Mayer's work to be the best short introduction to the crusades. They will certainly applaud this updated edition."--Church History
"[Mayer] is the leading historian of the Crusades writing in German today."--The Catholic Historical Review
Product Description
The second edition of this standard introduction to the Crusades has been extensively rewritten to take account of the latest research and interpretations. Mayer covers all the expeditions which took place between the First Crusade in 1096 and the final retreat from Palestine in 1291, touching on a wide range of issues, from the impact of the Crusades on the history of participating states to the political entanglements it instigated between the Pope and emperors.
