In this collection of studies by James M. Powell, two related centres of attention can be seen. One is the campaigns undertaken by western Europeans in the eastern Mediterranean, chiefly in the late twelfth and thirteenth centuries - the Crusades - the reasons for them and manner in which they were organized and promoted. The other is the Kingdom of Sicily under Frederick II, himself a Crusader, and its society and economy, including its Muslim population. A characteristic feature is the author''s interest in ordinary participants and the attempt to get behind the generalizations of macro-historians to the extent that may be possible.

Industry Reviews

'Researchers working in the fields covered by this collection will be ignoring Powell's work at their own risk. This collection will help to ensure that they do not.' The Catholic Historical Review 'The virtues of this collection are many, not least the author's admirable knowledge of the printed sources for southern Italy in the early thirteenth century.' English Historical Review
