Sinopsis

The word 'Crusades' has traditionally referred to the wars fought after the late eleventh century to recover the Holy Land from the Muslims. Reagan argues that they actually began in the seventh century with the conquest by the Persians of the Byzantine Empire. In retaliation, the emperor Heraclius used Christian propaganda to turn the war into the first crusade. Coincidentally, Heraclius's career was unfolding at the same time as that of the Muslim Prophet Mohammed. No sooner had Heraclius overthrown the power of Persia and regained the Holy Land, than he lost it to the irresistably strong Arabs. First Crusader is an entertaining and challenging reinterpretation of The Crusades.

Acerca del autor

Geoffrey Regan was series consultant for The History Channel's documentary series on Great Military Blunders and author of the book of the same name. He is the author of over twenty other books, including "Lionhearts: Richard I, Saladin, and the Era of the Third Crusade".
