An important history of the Crusades!

This 18th-century landmark work depicts some of the most important points of the crusades, the Knights Templar, Teutonic Knights, Knights of Malta, and the Knights of Rhodes (Hospitaller). It includes exciting adventures and travels through the Turks, as well as great siege by the Ottomans. Vertot, a Jesuit, spent most of his life as a pastor. He had many critics and enemies, many of which disregarded his work as historically accurate, though there is little basis for their claims.
