This talk is fabulous. It clearly explains the Crusades in an understandable and easy to remember way. I teach Medieval History for an online Catholic school. I will be recommending this to all my students.

This is a topic that was not taught when I went through Catholic schools and has gotten a lot of attention in modern media. In light of the ongoing tensions between Christianity or even secular westerners and Muslims, it is important to get accurate, supported information on the Crusades. I appreciate the clear and easily understandable presentation.

I have never had a good understanding of the Crusades. It has been a long time since I did any even minimal (like a page or 2 ) study of it during college history course. I found it very helpful in learning exactly what the crusades were and how they have actually not led to the problems today....except by lies about the crusades.....with the Muslims who are attacking Christians and killing all who do not agree with them. Thank you for providing this talk on formed.org.
