On the last Tuesday of November 1095, Pope Urban II delivered an electrifying speech that launched the First Crusade. His words set Christendom afire. Some 100,000 men, from knights to paupers, took up the call--the largest mobilization of manpower since the fall of the Roman Empire.Now, in The First Crusade, Thomas Asbridge offers a gripping account of a titanic three-year adventure filled with miraculous victories, greedy princes and barbarity on a vast scale. Readers follow the crusaders from their mobilization in Europe (where great waves of anti-Semitism resulted in the deaths of thousands of Jews), to their arrival in Constantinople, an exotic, opulent city--ten times the size of any city in Europe--that bedazzled the Europeans. Featured in vivid detail are the siege of Nicaea and the pivotal battle for Antioch, the single most important military engagement of the entire expedition, where the crusaders, in desperate straits, routed a larger and better-equipped Muslim army. Through all this, the crusaders were driven on by intense religious devotion, convinced that their struggle would earn them the reward of eternal paradise in Heaven. But when a hardened core finally reached Jerusalem in 1099 they unleashed an unholy wave of brutality, slaughtering thousands of Muslims--men, women, and children--all in the name of Christianity.
The First Crusade marked a watershed in relations between Islam and the West, a conflict that set these two world religions on a course toward deep-seated animosity and enduring enmity. The chilling reverberations of this earth-shattering clash still echo in the world today.

Got more than I paid for and am so impressed!
Size: Medium, Color: Burgundy, Size: Medium, Color: Burgundy
Absolutely stunning! Great material quality and embroidery work. Every bit the same as those you'd buy at Boot Barn or other western stores for $70 to $100. I'm so impressed!! I purchased these for my son's band (4 shirts for 4 band members) and the band members love them. This saved me so much money. I'm so happy with them and plan to purchase more of these in different colors and styles. The men said they're comfortable and love wearing them.

Size 3XL was correct. Fitted to arm length.
Size: 3X-Large, Color: Khaki
Most important- I was hesitant on this as a 3XL from the USA is very different from a 3XL from China. But very glad to report size was perfect! Arm length fitted nicely. So recommended. Very nice product- especially for the price!

Impressive quality!
Size: Large, Color: White
The model really made this shirt stand out for me.
I ordered it, and I too looked good in it!
The material was soft, of quality and had superb wrinkle resistance. It was also nice amount of thickness, preventing unwanted and awkward transparency. You know, when someone can see through your shirt. ;)
I ordered a size large and it fit perfectly.
The color I opted for was white, and it’s classy and complements my skin tone.
Planning to buy more in the future.

Good quality for the price. Not a slim fit. Beautiful embroidery. Decent shirt material. Vintage vibe. Goes great with blue jeans and cowboy boots. Highly recommend it.

Western shirt
Size: X-Large, Color: Black Coffee
Good quality, run a little small. I wear a XL, it's a little tight across the chest. The color matches as advertised.
