The capture of Jerusalem by the First Crusade in 1099 signalled the

beginning of an armed struggle in Palestine and throughout the Eastern

Mediterranean which lasted until the 15th century. It was a war

dominated by the building, securing and besieging of castles rather than

by pitched battles. Kristian Molin covers the military history of the

crusades on a wider geographical scale than previous historians, taking

in Armenia, Cyprus and Greece as well as the Holy Land. He also shows

the role of castles as administrative, judicial and social centres in

times of peace as well as in war. ""Unknown Crusader Castles"" provides a

fresh perspective on the history of the crusades.

Reviews for Unknown Crusader Castles

'This is a well-researched, densely thought and thought-provoking book. It is all too easy to take Stravinsky for granted at the end of the century, but Cross reminds us how long a shadow - and how many shadows - he has cast.' Music Teacher 'Cross has succeeded brilliantly in unearthing the Hydra-like legacy of Stravinsky's innovations, expressed with a lucidity and succinctness that make the book an absolute pleasure to read.' Tempo '[a] thoughtful overview of the Stravinsky legacy ...' Journal of the American Musicological Society
