This is a revised edition of R. C. Smail's classic account of the military achievements of the Crusaders in the context of a 'feudal society organized for war'. A new bibliographical introduction and an updated bibliography have been provided by Christopher Marshall, while the original plates section has been replaced by a series of new subjects. In covering the period 1097-1193, this edition also complements Dr Marshall's own Warfare in the Latin East, 1192-1291, also available in a paperback edition.

A revised edition of R. C. Smail's classic account of waging warfare in the time of the Crusades.
Reviews
'This is an important book. It deals with a neglected subject and, above all, it treats warfare as it should be treated but has seldom been treated before, as an integral part of the history of the societies which waged it.' Antiquaries Journal
'... fresh and stimulating'. History
'... meticulous and thorough'. New Statesman
