"This is a brilliant book. It is easily the best treatment of
the historiography of the crusades." Jonathan Riley-Smith,
University of Cambridge
"This first instalment of Blackwell's 'Contesting the Past'
series is an impressive showing. The author provides an excellent
up-to-date survey of Crusade studies, and even offers suggestions
for further investigation. Highly recommended." Choice
"An excellent survey of debates and historiography,
concentrating on work produced within the last fifty years. Housley
provides a clear guide based on an enviable command of the
literature, and for this we owe him a great debt of gratitude."
The International History Review
“Lively, lucid and stimulating … [A] highly readable
book.” English Historical Review
“Norman Housley has succeeded brilliantly in providing
such a book; it is accessible, concise, and comprehensive."
Historian
"Housely's book should be at the very top of the reading list of anyone teaching the crusades." History
