Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of the Crusades Although the title sufficiently indicates the Scope of this work, it may not be superﬂuous to add that it is designed to give to busy people a narrative Of the grand drama of the Crusades. The strictly historical portions rest of course on contemporary authority, but in the treatment and application of the first writers, I have drawn largely on the thought Of a noble array of scholars, widely differing in views, a list of whose works is given before the Index.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Crusades and the Crusaders The piety and chivalry exhibited by those Christian warriors, who, at an early period of European civilization, left their homes and their countries to rescue the Holy Sepulchre from the grasp of Moslem conquerors, have since seldom - save in the case of men too sceptical to sym pathize, or too stupid to comprehend - failed to excite admiration and curiosity. My object, in this book for boys, is to give an idea of the heroes who, animated by religion and heroism, took part in the battles, the sieges, the marvellous enterprises of valor and despair, which make up the history of those great adventures known as the Crusades.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Crusades, Vol. 1 of 3 And we unhesitatingly claim a place among these for that which we are about to lay before the public. It were super uous to speak of the advantages derived from the science to which it belongs; and there can be no doubt that the Crusades form one of the most important sections of human history; not only instructive, but extraordinary; supplying abundance of edifying matter to the statesman, the philosopher, the poet, the novelist, and the citizen. If it be true that no page of history should be considered as a blank to the statesman, which leaf of her vast volume can he turn with much more promise of instruction? He will behold men, of powerful and ambitious minds, seizing upon the worst passions of various ages, - superstition, cupidity, and cruelty, - and wielding the energies of incredible multi tudes, in endeavours to work out their own ends and views. Many an invaluable lesson may he gather from the want of foresight, prudence, knowledge, and unanimity dis played in these astonishing enterprises whilst the causes of numerous effects now in Operation may be plainly traced to these eventful periods.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of the First Crusade, as witnessed by contemporary writers 'O day so ardently desired! O time of times the most memorable! O deed before all other deeds!' The fall of Jerusalem in the summer of 1099 to an exhausted and starving army of western European soldiers was one of the most extraordinary events of the Middle Ages. It was both the climax of a great wave of visionary Christian fervour and the beginning of what proved to be a futile and abortive attempt to implant a new European kingdom of heaven in an overwhelmingly Muslim world. This remarkable collection brings together a wide variety of contemporary accounts of the First Crusade, including Pope Urban II's initial call to arms of 1095, as well as the first-hand writings of priests, knights, a Jewish pilgrim, a destitute noblewoman, an Iraqi poet and the historian Anna Comnena. Together they provide a vivid and nuanced picture of the First Crusade and the people who were swept up in it. Edited with an introduction and notes by Christopher Tyerman

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Jerusalem and the Crusades There is not much water in Palestine in the way Of rivers and lakes, but there are many Springs; and the rain-water is stored up in great, deep cisterns cut out Of the rock. Sometimes we use the Old cisterns that the Romans made, hundreds Of years ago, when they ruled in Palestine: that was long before the Crusaders' days, Of course. In the days Of the Crusaders there were many more forests and many more trees than there are now, and wild beasts were common. There are still some - bears, leopards, wolves, jackals, cheetahs, hyenas, and foxes, and SO on - but they are not really common. There are also some poisonous snakes, and insects that sting, such as scorpions and centipedes; but the land was SO much better covered in the Old days that all these things were far more common, and the Crusaders Often suffered a good deal from their poisonous stings, not knowing what they were.

It is marked by the appear. Ance of Mohammed the Prophet of God, as he is styled by those who profess his religion. It is not our intention to become the panegyrists of the Prophet, but truth compels us to acknowledge that he possessed many great and noble qualities; and we might in charity believe, that, born as he was in the midst of idolatry, with the whole world lying in dark ness around him, the light-religion? Of Persia (by far the purest system Of unrevealed religion) sunk and de graded, the Mosaic law become a burdensome and pue rile superstition, and even Christianity itself nearly lost beneath the weight of false philosophy and abject ido latty - he may have been sincere in the first enunciation of the sublime sentence on which his religious system rests, There is no God but God.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs of the Crusades Of these French memoirs, the Memoirs of Villehardouin and Joinville, here reproduced in an English form, are certainly not the least interesting. They are the first in date, those of Villehardouin having been written, probably, in the days of our King John, early in the thirteenth century while those of Joinville were completed, about a century later, in October I 309, shortly after our Edward II. Had begun to reign. Both are monuments of the French language, and of French prose, at an early stage of development - giant lispings, as one may Say. Both are written by eye-witnesses who had taken an important part, in the case of Villehardouin a very important part, in what they describe. Both deal with stirring episodes in one of the most stirring chapters in human history, the chapter that tells how, for some three centuries, Christendom put forth its power to capture, and again recapture.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the Crusades, Vol. 2 When we cast a retrospective glance over the periods we have described, we congratulate ourselves upon not having lived in those times of war and trouble; but when we look around us, and reflect upon the age of which we form a part, we fear we have little reason to boast over the epochs commonly termed barbarous. During twenty-five years a revolution, born of opinions unknown to past ages, has pervaded cities, agitated nations, and shaken thrones. This revolution has for auxiliaries war and victory; it strengthens itself with all the obstacles that are opposed to it; it is for ever born again from itself, and when we believe we can perceive the end of its ravages, it re-appears more terrible and menacing than ever.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Crusades: The Story of the Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem The circumstances of the present series forbid that constant citation of authorities in notes, which might otherwise be desirable but the fact that the narrative has in the main been compiled from the writings of contemporary historians, will, it is hoped, have given it some merit of freshness, even though the conclu sions arrived at may often not differ materially from those of other writers. W'hatever claim of originality is thus put forward for the present volume, is made in no spirit of detraction from the advantage, which has in places been derived from freely consulting previous workers in the same field.

In the meantime the crusaders and the Venetians remained at Zara during the winter. They considered how great the expense had been and said to one another that they could not go to Babylon or Alexandria or Syria; for they had neither provisions nor money for the journey. They had already used up everything they had, either during the sojourn that they had made or in the great price that they had paid for the vessels. They said that they could not go and, even if they should go, they would accomplish nothing; they had neither provisions nor money sufficient to support them.
