Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Crusades Great events in history are seldom sudden and spontaneous in their origin. They may commonly be traced to causes long anterior to themselves. This, beyond all question, was the case with the transactions we are now about to consider. Their hidden source is to be sought four hundred years before they transpired. The origin of the Crusades is to be found in the rise and progress of Mohammedanism, which, propagating itself by force of arms, at one period threatened either to extirpate all the nations of Christendom, or to subdue them to its own despotic dominion. The spirit of Mohammedanism was essentially the spirit of conquest; and its conquests were multiplied with the most astonishing rapidity. Within a brief period it penetrated to the very heart of Europe. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
