Battles of the Crusades covers examples from every campaign in the religious war between Christianity and Islam--from the well-known encounters in Antioch, Jerusalem, and Harran to the less-famous clash at Montgisard and Saladin's destruction of the Crusader army at Hattin. Each entry includes an introduction, a concise description of the action, and an analysis of the aftermath, while color maps illustrate the movement of forces and development of the fighting.
