SALADIN’S TACTICS SIEGE OF JERUSALEM KEY PLAYERS
Welcome to
CRUSADES
In the 11th century the Christian Byzantine Greeks of the
Byzantine Empire were under pressure from the forces
of the Seljuk Turks. Pope Urban II, leader of the Roman
Catholic Church, called for a great expedition to help
relieve that pressure and liberate the Holy Land from
the Muslims. The subsequent crusades over the next
200 years changed the face of the Holy Land forever,
and ruined any goodwill in the relationships between
Christians and Muslims, and between Roman Catholic
Christians and Greek Orthodox Christians.
Discover the historical and religious background to the
crusades, the dramatic battles and political intrigue and
what everyday life was like in Outremer. Uncover the true
stories of crusading heroes and their rivalries, such as
King Richard the Lionheart and Sultan Saladin. This is the
perfect handbook for anyone on a quest for knowledge
about this tumultuous period of history.
