Fideles Crucis : The Papacy, the West, and the Recovery of the Holy Land, 1274-1314

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Schein challenges the view that the fall of Acre in 1291 was a watershed dividing the "classical age" of the crusade from the late Middle Ages, when the ideal had become sterile, the obsessive dream of a handful of individuals. She shows instead that the desire to recover the Holy Land
remained powerful and pervasive, and was an important consideration in the policy-making of European rulers.
