Paperback. Zustand: Good. The battles and political scheming that took place during the medieval crusades have often been described, but little has been written about crusading from the point of view of the actual participants. This refreshingly different book redresses this situation by asking what inspired those recruits who marched across Europe and fought the 'infidel', as well as those they actually fought against. What did it feel like to be a crusader? How did the long marches, bad food and lack of medicine affect the average armed pilgrim? Were the original ideas sustained in the face of the perils of the journey? What image of the enemy did each side carry into battle? Drawing on a wide variety of sources, Ronald C. Finucane also discusses such matters as the social composition of the fighting forces, the role of women in the crusades, the part played by superstitious ideas, supernatural omens, and the conduct of both Christian and Moslem soldiers on and off the field of battle.

A handsome first American edition/first printing in Near Fine condition with soiled edges in alike dust-jacket with minor rubbing and edgewear; In Soldiers of Faith, Ronald C. Finucane offers a unique and comprehensive exploration of the religious dimension of warfare from the dawn of history to the present. He examines the astonishingly varied ways in which religious belief and devotion have influenced military strategy, tactics, and behavior from the ancient world to the modern battlefield.Finucane shows how the Crusades and the Muslim conquests were driven by religious fervor and how these conflicts were shaped by the clash of two radically different worldviews.
