Krátký popis
FROM THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE SILK ROADS 'Filled
with Byzantine intrigue, in every sense this book is important,
compellingly revisionist and impressive in its scholarly use of
totally fresh sources' Simon Sebag Montefiore In 1096, an
expedition of extraordinary scale and ambition set off from Western
Europe on a mass pilgrimage to Jerusalem. Three years later, after
a journey which saw acute hardship, the most severe dangers and
thousands of casualties, the knights of the First Crusade found
themselves storming the fortifications and capturing the Holy City.
Against all the odds, the expedition had returned Jerusalem to
Christian hands. In 'the most significant contribution to
rethinking the origins and course of the First Crusade for a
generation' (Mark Whittow, TLS), Frankopan paints a strikingly
original picture of this infamous confrontation between
Christianity and Islam. Focusing on Constantinople and the
Byzantine Empire, a truly fresh interpretation of a very old story
emerges that radically alters our understanding of the entire
crusade movement.
