Description

The Northern Crusades Second Edition by Eric Christiansen provides a balanced and compelling account of a tumultuous era in medieval history. Newly revised with developments in Baltic and Northern research, this authoritative overview explores the complex events that shaped the region. Inspired by the Pope's call for a Holy War, the 'Northern Crusades' were a series of military campaigns that resulted in vast new territories becoming Christian, including Finland, Estonia, and Prussia. This book offers a nuanced understanding of these lesser-known conflicts, which had significant consequences for the region's history. With 320 pages of detailed analysis, this paperback edition is an essential resource for anyone interested in medieval European history and the complex politics of the time.
