About This Item
Oxford University Press, Oxford 2008. 24.0 x 16.0cms, 254pp very good hardback & dustwrapper When Pope Innocent III exhorted all Christians to exterminate the French heretics he started a 20 year war, where Christians killed other Christians. Other historians have confused this crusade with the war against the Cathars. The Albigensian crusade led to the Inquisition, anti-Semitism and 'epitomised the sanguine beauty and bloody savagery of medieval Christianity'.
