Sir Steven Runciman's three volume A History of the Crusades, one of the great classics of English historical writing, is being reissued. This volume deals completely with the First Crusade and the foundation of the kingdom of Jerusalem. As Runciman says in his preface: 'Whether we regard the Crusades as the most tremendous and most romantic of Christian adventures, or as the last of the barbarian invasions, they form a central fact in medieval history. Before their inception the centre of our civilization was placed in Byzantium and in the lands of the Arab caliphate. Before they faded out the hegemony in civilization had passed to western Europe. Out of this transference modern history was born.'

Gustave Doré's ultra-rare masterpiece is restored for a new generation looking to experience some of his best illustrations. Experience Michaud's epic two-volume History of the Crusades illustrated by Gustave Doré in this digitally restored and enhanced printing of one of Doré's most elusive and extraordinary works. This restoration includes: - Full-size 8 1/2" x 11" pages - Pristine original source capture - Crisp digitally re-scanned and enhanced images - Bold new cover design - Author's original page layouts - Classic type font - English translation from William Robson - Introduction - Michaud biographical notice - 50 full-page Doré illustrations with caption pages French writer and publisher Joseph Michaud printed History of the Crusades in its complete form in 1840. More than 100 years later in 1875, famed French artist Gustave Doré illustrated a deluxe two-volume set with lavish full-page illustrations depicting unforgettable and intricately detailed scenes of battles, heroism, and tragedy. Many consider Doré's vibrant artwork in these volumes to be some of his best, though they remain little known because of their rarity due to the limited numbers printed at the time. Volume one of this priceless two-part saga begins with "Book 1: The Birth of the Crusades" from A.D. 300-1095 and continues to "Book XI: From the Restoration of Isaac to the Death of Baldwin" A.D. 1198-1204. Table of Contents: Book I: Birth of the Crusades A.D. 300-1095 Book II: Departure and March of the Crusaders A.D. 1096-1097 Book III: The March To, and Siege of Antioch A.D. 1097-1099 Book IV: The Siege of Jerusalem A.D. 1099-1103 Book V: History of the Kingdom of Jerusalem A.D. 1099-1148 Book VI: The Second Crusade A.D. 1142-1148 Book VII: The Third Crusade A.D. 1148-1188 Book VIII: Saladin A.D. 1188-1192 Book IX: The Fourth Crusade A.D. 1195-1198 Book X: The Fifth Crusade A.D. 1198-1204 Book XI: The Restoration of Isaac to the Death of Baldwin A.D. 1198-1204 About the Artist: Master artist Gustave Dorè (1832-1883), known for the lavish illustrations in Dante's Inferno, Purgatory and Paradise, Dorè's London: A Pilgrimage, and Milton's Paradise Lost. Dorè is regarded as one of history's best artists, illustrators, and cartoonists. Known for his incredibly detailed work in books such as Dante's Inferno, his drawings for History of the Crusades showcase his mastery of depicting cinematic battle scenes on an epic scale.
