TITLE: The Crusades
AUTHOR: Anthony West, illustrated by Carl Rose

SYNOPSIS: "In 1095, the world was very different from our world today. For those were the days when knights rode forth to battle in heavy armor, and military might determined all things. In that year Peter the Hermit led thousands of men, women and children in a march to Jerusalem to rescue the Holy Land from the Moslems. Each of his followers wore a cross as official sign of membership in what was call the First Crusade. In the next 200 years, millions of Europeans headed toward Jerusalem on a series of crusades. Some of the Crusaders kept journals from which we can piece together the full story of their adventures."
