THE DREAM AND THE TOMB
A HISTORY OF THE CRUSADES
ROBERT PAYNE
"No man alive can write more beautiful prose than Robert Payne."
— The New York Times
"God wills it!" the pope cried and raised high the golden crucifix. "It is Christ who comes from the tomb and presents you his cross. Wear it upon your shoulders and breasts, your arms and standards. Christ died for you. It is your duty to die for him."

Summoning to life the Crusader battalions that hewed out kingdoms in Christ's native land nearly a thousand years ago, Robert Payne has woven a glittering tapestry of a time when splendor vied with baseness, piety with greed, and courage with folly. This is an exquisitely wrought saga of the medieval world that is as knowing of the peasant's hovel as of the prince's palace. And it is the story of the clash and mingling of East andWest, when religious faith and the possession of an ancient sep-ulcher were the things that mattered most in the life and death of men.
