Kingdoms of the Crusaders

"This volume brings together a series of papers spanning a quarter of a century of research into the history and institutions of the Latin East from the late 12th century to the end of the 14th. The crusaders established two kingdoms in the Levant. Christmas Day 1100 saw the coronation of the first king of Jerusalem in the aftermath of the First Crusade. The Lusignans came to power in Cyprus in 1192 as the Third Crusade was drawing to its close, and they ruled there as kings from 1197 until the 1470s. How these regimes fared in the face of external enemies and internal pressures and how the westerners settled in the East structured their legal, governmental and social affairs are the twin themes of this collection."--
