Product description

Review

Allen and Amt have dusted off the Crusades from the relics shelf of European history and have brought the conflict into a new age of scholarship, making use of a multifaceted, multicultural perspective of great value in our interconnected world where an understanding of cultural context is so vital.

The book's beauty lies in its documentation of relevant and important primary sources from both Christian as well as Muslim sources. Moreover, after documenting the sources it neither judges nor analyses; rather, at the end of almost each document it encourages readers to engage more with it and poses some important questions, such as why, what, how, and when.

About the Author

S.J. Allen is a faculty member in Arts and Humanities at Open University in the UK. Emilie Amt is the Hildegarde Pilgram Professor of History at Hood College in Frederick, Maryland.

    Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

    Emilie Amt is an emeritus professor of history at Hood College in Frederick, Maryland. An award-winning writer on black history in western Maryland, she blogs at emilieamt.com, and her newest book is about African Americans at the battle of Antietam. She’s also a well known medieval historian who has published extensively on religious women and on twelfth- and thirteenth-century English government, finance, and war.

    Her interest in history began at the age of fourteen, when she read Josephine Tey's classic murder mystery The Daughter of Time. She earned her B.A. at Swarthmore College and her doctorate at Oxford University. Around 2010, she grew interested in black history as she researched the enslaved people who had attended her church.

    She lives in Hagerstown, Maryland, where she's active in public history as well as research and writing.
