A researcher at the top of his field, Bernard Hamilton explores with a clarity and intellect sometimes scarce in historical treatises like this one the various and oftentimes confusing world of late 12th century Jerusalem and the politics of the court of Baldwin IV. A must read for anyone interested in the Third Crusade.
