The clash between King
Richard I "The Lionheart" of England and Saladin has become legendary.
Throughout the ages, military enthusiasts have been fascinated by the
strategy of the resolute, heavily armed Anglo-Saxon army versus their
more lightly armed opponents. Richard’s inability to recapture
Jerusalem was disappointing, but it proved to the crusaders that
Saladin was not invincible. This book describes the struggle that has
evolved into a mythic campaign for the Holy City of Jerusalem,
providing an in-depth look at the battle, the personalities involved
and the tactics employed by each army.
