The Crusades: A Complete Guide

The Crusades: A Complete Guide

To launch our mini series on the Crusades, we've put together your complete guide to almost two centuries of holy war - from start to finish. We untangle faith, politics and myth, and reveal how the Crusades reshaped Europe, the Middle East and relations between Islam and Christianity forever.


For this series, we're joined by Steve Tibble, author of many books on the Crusades, including 'The Crusader Armies: 1099 - 1187'.


Produced by James Hickmann and McKenna Fernandez, and edited by Jhenelle White.
