description: Politician, military leader, crusader, and King of England, Richard the Lionheart has been the subject of Middle Ages’ studies for centuries. His early years were marked by bitter rivalry with his father and brothers, but once crowned King in 1189, his primary ambition was to lead a crusade to the Holy Land to recapture the city of Jerusalem. Richard the Lionheart treats readers to a graphically stunning retelling of the King’s battle against Saladin for control of the Holy Land, his subsequent imprisonment, and ultimate return to the throne.
