'The difficulty of understanding what crusading in the twelfth century was all about and whether or not the crusade as an institution already existed at the time will continue to occupy historians of the crusade. Constable's crucial contributions toward these debates are given renewed force and importance by this collection of articles.' The Catholic Historical Review 'From cover to cover this volume is bursting with some of the most important crusade scholarship of the past fifty years. With a remarkable breadth of knowledge Constable has changed the way that historians understand the crusades. The essays in this volume are how he did it.' The Medieval Review 'The scholarship is, as is always the case with Constable, impeccable. The range of source material used is very wide and the judgements are weighty and authoritative.' Journal of Ecclesiastical History '... ce volume nous apporte une veritable revision de notre perception du mouvement de croisade dans son ensemble entre 1095 et 1204.' Jean Richard, Revue d'histoire ecclesiastique 'This collection of thirteen studies by Giles Constable is very welcome.' Bulletin of the German Historical Institute
