This book looks at the history of the Crusades from an unusual perspective - it tells you about the everyday life of the Crusaders. You will learn about who the Crusaders were, on what motives they took the Crusader vow, what collisions in the life of the family and society gave rise to this decision, how the financing and logistics of military-religious expeditions were carried out, how the crusaders' camping life proceeded and how they organized life in the Holy Land. Some of these subjects are explored through the unusual life stories of specific historical characters. The book also asks to what extent contacts with the East and exposure to unknown peoples and cultures changed the way of life and perception of the world of medieval people.
