Title: God wills it!
Description: "For nearly two hundred years the Middle East was the battleground on which three of the world's great powers - Islam, Byzantium and western Christendom - fought themselves to a standstill. This new popular history, taking into account the latest scholarly research, presents for all those interested in this epic struggle an enthralling narrative that not only relates the crucial events - the battles, sieges and marches - but also brings to life the remarkable characters involved in this clash between imperial ambitions." "God Wills It! relates the whole dramatic history of the crusading movement which throughout much of the Middle Ages sought to establish Christianity in the place of its birth."--Jacket.
