Synopsis

Thanks to the stratagems of Bohemund de Hauteville, leader of the Apulian Normans, the Crusade has taken the city of Antioch, and just in time. Once the besiegers, Bohemund and his men are about to become the besieged - a huge Turkish-led army, commanded by the fearsome General Kerbogha, is fast approaching. Provisions are desperately needed, but the surrounding countryside is near barren and the storerooms of Antioch much depleted. The Crusaders will not hold out for long without falling prey to starvation. _x000D_
For Bohemund and his nephew Tancred there is another difficulty: the dissent between the Crusade leaders has broken out into the open. If the Christian host is fighting on two fronts, so is Bohemund himself. With the enemy Turks at his front and his warring peers at his back, can he gain the mighty city of Antioch once and for all?

Goodreads review by Harry on May 14, 2014

I like Jack Ludlow's stories because I enjoy history. He writes more from a historian's point of review. After reading his work you feel if you have learned something. That being said his point of view can impede the storyline a bit. So if you love history then read this book and others by Ludlow.......more
