De Expugnatione Terrae Sanctae Per Saladinum
Miles Christi
The "Conquest of the Holy Land by Saladin" was written shortly after the conquest ans annihilation of the crusader kingdoms by an eyewitness, possibly a Templar or Hospitaller knight. It gives unique insight into a lost world as it was written by someone who was part of that world himself, unlike many chronicles that were written long after the event. It is a very emotional book; short of a time machine this is the closest one can get to 12th century events on a personal level and the reader goes through all the fear, hope, hate and despair that the writer felt 800 years ago. This edition comes with a glossary of medieval Latin terms in English, German and French.
