Jerusalem in the Time of the Crusades: Society, Landscape and Art in the Holy City under Frankish Rule / Edition 1

by Adrian J. Boas

Overview

Adrian Boas's combined use of historical and archaeological evidence together with first-hand accounts written by visiting pilgrims results in a multi-faceted perspective on Crusader Jerusalem.

Generously illustrated, this book will serve both as a scholarly account of this city's archaeology and history, and a useful guide for the interested reader to a city at the centre of international and religious interest and conflict today.
