A lively reimagining of how the distant medieval world of war functioned, drawing on the objects used and made by crusaders Throughout the Middle Ages crusading was justified by religious ideology, but the resulting military campaigns were fueled by concrete objectives: land, resources, power, reputation. Crusaders amassed possessions of all sorts, from castles to reliquaries. Campaigns required material funds and equipment, while conquests produced bureaucracies, taxation, economic exploitation, and commercial regulation. Wealth sustained the Crusades while material objects, from weaponry and military technology to carpentry and shipping, conditioned them. This lavishly illustrated volume considers the material trappings of crusading wars and the objects that memorialized them, in architecture, sculpture, jewelry, painting, and manuscripts. Christopher Tyerman's incorporation of the physical and visual remains of crusading enriches our understanding of how the crusaders themselves articulated their mission, how they viewed their place in the world, and how they related to the cultures they derived from and preyed upon. A note to readers: the grey-shaded pages throughout this volume look at the Crusades in detail, exploring individual themes such as food and drink, medicine, weapons and women's role in the Crusades. These short essays are interspersed throughout the chapters and the main text will continue after each one. For instance, 'Taking the Cross' runs from pages 4 to 7, and the Introduction continues on p. 8.Binding Type: Hardcover

Apple laptop
Capacity: 16GB Unified Memory | 512GB SSD Storage, Color: Starlight, Set: Without AppleCare+
I’ve been using this MacBook Air for a few weeks now and honestly I’m very impressed with the quality and performance. It’s super lightweight, fast, and the battery lasts all day without any problems. The screen quality is beautiful and everything runs smoothly, even when I have multiple apps open at the same time.

Worth the investment
Capacity: 16GB Unified Memory | 512GB SSD Storage, Color: Sky Blue, Set: Without AppleCare+
I don't usually write reviews, but I recently bought this computer and I'm loving it. I previously had an M2 2023 Macbook Air that I got water in and fried. This essentially does all the same things, but cooler. It also has a bigger screen, which is perfect for me since I do a lot of work on my computer and constantly have a million tabs open. I'm also a student, so there's that. No complaints! The battery life is great and much better than my old computer. The color is a beautiful blue, which I've never seen before and I think is quite unique. I've gotten compliments on it. It also runs much faster and for some reason connects better to my crappy printer! Win all around!

Impressive MacBook Air
Capacity: 16GB Unified Memory | 512GB SSD Storage, Color: Midnight, Set: Without AppleCare+
Ordered via Prime and the Mac arrived the next day. Setup was easy. The M5 chip flies but my usage is basically routine functions no heavy usage. Everything is speedy. This computer is an upgrade from my 2017 MacBook Pro and a 2020 iMac. Both of those old Macs are still functional. I've been using Macs since the Apple IIC and II GS. Over 35 years ago. The keyboard is one of the best I've used. I loved the 2017 MBP keyboard because if had a great feel. Others since then were not comfortable until this keyboard on the MB Air. Booting up is fast. For me the battery will last for four days before recharging. I really like the Mag Safe charger. Easy on and easy off especially if you happen to forget you're charging and pull the computer away from the connection. Connection just drops off. The touchpad is not as sensitive as others. If I accidentally rest my finger or fingers on the pad it doesn't execute an unwanted command. You have to use a little pressure to execute the task. No problems while typing and having the touchpad sending you off into space somewhere. A great Mac upgrade.

Beautiful, Super Thin, Fast
Capacity: 16GB Unified Memory | 512GB SSD Storage, Color: Silver, Set: Without AppleCare+
It’s beautiful, super thin, very fast, and the screen size reminds me of the large iPad Pro. I have to get used to not touching the screen like you do with an iPad. You must use a mouse or your finger. Also programs work differently than apps. Make sure you are ready for that if you are only used to using an iPad.

Awesome
Capacity: 16GB Unified Memory | 512GB SSD Storage, Color: Midnight, Set: Without AppleCare+
This computer is great, it's fast, reliable, and it has a great amount of screen real estate. It's great for people who have trouble reading or people who have to multitask.
