A Chronology of the Crusades

A Chronology of the Crusades provides a day-by-day development of the Crusading movement, the Crusades and the states created by them through the medieval period. Beginning in the run-up to the First Crusade in 1095 and ending with the Turkish attack on Belgrade in 1456, this reference is a comprehensive guide to the events of each Crusade. Both detailed and accessible, this chronology draws together material from contemporary sources with assessment and explanation to give students an in-depth overview of one of the most fascinating periods in medieval history.

Including an introduction by Peter Frankopan, this book is an essential resource for students and academics alike.
