More about the book
Focusing on the Crusades, the author argues that Christianity, particularly the Catholic Church, significantly shaped Western civilization. He posits that the initial military successes of the Crusades were ultimately undermined by the inability to conquer Damascus, a crucial communications hub for Islamic forces. This failure allowed Muslim armies to unite against the Christian territories, compounded by unreliable military reinforcements, leading to the inevitable collapse of the Crusader efforts.
