Krátky popis
A vivid new history of the criminal underworld in the medieval Holy
Land &,nbsp, The religious wars of the crusades are renowned
for their military engagements. But the period was witness to
brutality beyond the battlefield. More so than any other medieval
war zone, the Holy Land was rife with unprecedented levels of
criminality and violence.&,nbsp, In the first history of its
kind, Steve Tibble explores the criminal underbelly of the
crusades. From gangsters and bandits to muggers and pirates, Tibble
presents extraordinary evidence of an illicit underworld. He shows
how the real problem in the region stemmed not from religion but
from young men.Dislocated, disinhibited, and present in
disturbingly large numbers, they were the propellant that stoked
two centuries of unceasing warfare and shocking levels of
criminality. &,nbsp,Crusader Criminals charts the downward
spiral of desensitisation that grew out of the horrors of incessant
warfare—and in doing so uncovers some of the most surprising
stories of the time.
