A Military History of the Levant during the Era of the Crusades

The second volume of this two-volume collection provides a military history of the Levant from the final years of the twelfth century to the expulsion of the Franks from the Levant in the late thirteenth century.

Each chapter is written from the viewpoint of a different group. This approach gives voice to various groups, including crusaders, local Latin princes and neighbouring Muslim powers, providing the readers with a deeper understanding of the crusades. Featuring contributions from leading scholars, this book combines narrative and analysis to deliver fresh insights into the era’s military dynamics.

The volume is ideal for students, scholars, and instructors of medieval history, military history, and crusades studies. It is also suitable for general readers interested in the diverse perspectives and military systems of the Levant during the crusades.
