More about the book

The author presents a compelling argument for the necessity and ultimate failure of the Crusades, attributing the collapse to the personal and strategic shortcomings of its leaders. He contends that the inadequacies of the First Crusade resulted in an unsustainable state, leaving Europe exposed to Islamic threats for centuries. Written in 1937, the text reflects on the West's perceived advantage following the Ottoman Empire's decline, while also issuing a prophetic caution regarding the potential resurgence of Islam and its ongoing conflict with Christendom.
