Synopsis
Excerpt from The Crusades and the Crusaders
The piety and chivalry exhibited by those Christian warriors, who, at an early period of European civilization, left their homes and their countries to rescue the Holy Sepulchre from the grasp of Moslem conquerors, have since seldom - save in the~case of men too sceptical to sym pathize, or too stupid to comprehend - failed to excite admiration and curiosity. My object, in this book for boys, is to give an idea of the heroes who, animated by religion and heroism, took part in the battles, the sieges, the marvellous enterprises of valor and despair, which make up the history of those great adventures known as the Crusades.

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a rousing account of the First Crusade, a pivotal event that brought profound religious, political, and social change during the 11th century. It was at the Council of Clermont in 1095 that Pope Urban II, with passionate words, ignited the spark that set thousands of devoted believers on a path of war and pilgrimage. From humble serfs to powerful princes, driven by a potent blend of piety and ambition, they took up the cross. Knights in shining armor and ragged peasant mobs, men and women, old and young, all united under the banner of faith, endured unimaginable hardships in their quest to liberate the Holy Land from Muslim rule. The book masterfully captures the spirit of the age, bringing to life the epic struggle that reshaped the medieval world.
