Peter the Hermit is a historical biography written by Daniel A. Goodsell. The book tells the story of Peter the Hermit, a French priest who played a significant role in the First Crusade. Peter was a charismatic preacher who inspired thousands of people to take up the cross and fight in the Holy Land. Goodsell provides a detailed account of Peter's life, from his humble beginnings as a hermit to his rise to prominence as a religious leader. The book explores the political and religious climate of Europe in the 11th century, and the events that led up to the First Crusade. Goodsell also examines the impact of Peter's preaching on the people of Europe, and the role he played in shaping the Crusade. The book is well-researched and provides a fascinating insight into the life of one of the most important figures of the First Crusade. It is an essential read for anyone interested in medieval history, religious studies, or the Crusades.1906. A story of enthusiasm. The writer drew most of the facts found in this volume from Michaud and Milman, having often found it necessary to chasten the too pronounced Roman sympathies of Michaud by the equally pronounced Protestantism of Milman.
