Series: Studies in Welsh History

This

is the first study to consider the impact of the Crusades on medieval

Wales. Drawing on poetry, chronicles, and other literatures, Kathryn

Hurlock explores Welsh enthusiasm for the movement during the twelfth

and thirteenth centuries. Hurlock considers military recruitment,

participation, and overall support for military campaigns throughout

Wales, demonstrating the varying opinions in north and south Wales and

among various social classes. She also shows how the English used the

Crusades as a way to cement their control over Wales.
