About this audiobook

The Crusading World explores the dramatic final centuries of the Crusader States, when survival became increasingly difficult and the dream of a permanent Christian kingdom in the Holy Land began to fade. From the rise of powerful leaders such as Saladin and Richard the Lionheart to the devastating Battle of Hattin, the legendary Third Crusade, the controversial Fourth Crusade, and the shocking Sack of Constantinople, this volume examines the events that reshaped the medieval Mediterranean. The book also delves into the fascinating world of the Military Orders, including the Knights Templar, Hospitallers, and Teutonic Knights, whose warrior-monks defended the Crusader States while becoming some of the most influential institutions of the Middle Ages. Readers will discover the complex diplomatic contacts between Crusaders and the mighty Mongol Empire, revealing a global dimension to the struggle for the Holy Land.
