The Holy Lance of AnonymousThis historical drama is an epic retelling of the savage battles and vendettas of the First Crusade, a holy war ordered by Pope Urban II that swept through the continents of Europe and the lands of Middle East in a torrent of blood and fire at the close of the eleventh century.Anonymous is the infamous author of the Gesta Francorum and a fervent Crusader-knight under the banner of the giant, Duke Bohemund of Taranto. His journey takes him through every major battle of the First Crusade and brings him into contact with many legends of that age, including Princess Anna Comnena of Byzantium and the great Sultan Kerbogha, destroyer of cities, before the epic conclusion in the blood-soaked streets of Jerusalem.Written in dramatic form, this masterful retelling is an easy to follow history that will help any reader discover the real and religiously embellished story of the First Crusade in the same manner that Arthur Miller's classic, The Crucible, unfolded the history of the Salem witch trials. Enter into a tale derived from primary source accounts that follows the Crusaders from Christian Europe as they campaigned to reclaim the Holy Land and were undefeated by the desert sun, constant attacks by armies that outnumbered them, and the internal battles of will between the lords who led the war in the pope's name.
