Book
God's armies : crusade and Jihad: origins, history, aftermath / Malcolm Lambert.
"Recognizing that the Christian crusades unfolded in a world shaped by Islamic jihads, Lambert scrutinizes both militant forms of religion simultaneously. In a world where memories of crusader atrocities sustain virulent new forms of jihad, such balanced scholarship offers hope of interfaith understanding." -- Booklist
