The Later Crusades, 1274-1580: From Lyons to Alcazar
"Housley's summaries of recent work on relations with the Turks and the Iberian and Baltic crusades and his final chapters on the ideological and institutional legacies of the crusades are especially valuable."--Religious Studies Review"Housley's scope is far broader than the loss of the Holy Land....an extremely useful book, written in a highly literate and slightly elevated style....the suggestions for further reading are extensive and informative without being esoteric or deadening.  There is a useful list of rulers, and a good index.  Those wishing a survey of this subject cannot do better."--History: Reviews of New Books"Housley's study stands as a commendable achievement in campaign expositions recommended for their detail and contextual analysis, and his vision of pious devotion is considerate of medieval culture's persistence through centuries of change."--The Historian"Must be welcomed for its thoroughness and scholarship in confirming the later crusades as a legitimate subject for study."--Times Literary Supplement"Housley has provided a useful survey of late medieval and early modern Western expansion in this three-century overview of the later crusades"--Choice
