This book deals with the later years of the crusades, when the people building castles realized that they were grimly holding on, with very limited resources in men, to every scrap of land. The idea had some effect on how and where they built. The illustrations are very useful. ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Onderdeel van de reeks(en)Osprey Fortress (32)
The debacle of the Second Crusade in 1148 caused the Crusader States to realise the necessity of developing a more cautious strategy. The original expansionist spirit largely disappeared, and the Crusader States made priorities of strengthening their existing fortifications and towns and building new castles. These structures encompassed core aspects of Western European military architecture with the integration of rapidly developing Arab and Islamic traditions. Following Fortress 21: 'Crusader Castles in the Holy Land 1097–1192', this book examines the design, development and defensive principles of some of the best-known Crusader fortifications and castles, including Crac des Chevaliers, Castel Blanc, Arsuf, Margat, Atlit, Montfort and Acre.
