Iron Men and Saints

This audiobook recounts the passionate and historic First Crusade of 1096, initiated by Pope Urban II’s influential speech that inspired a massive movement of Christians across Europe and beyond. It follows the journey of countless peasants and knights as they head toward Jerusalem, led by notable baronial figures, to confront Islamic armies in a series of dramatic clashes. Master historian Harold Lamb vividly presents the unfolding story of faith, conflict, and the extraordinary events that shaped this pivotal period in history.
