Jerusalem Pilgrims Before the Crusades

Hundreds of pilgrims set out from Europe to the Holy Land between 385 and 1099 AD but of all these only 18 wrote descriptions which have survived. In this book, the author discusses the texts, the physical conditions of travel and the development of Christian prayer in the Holy Places. There are over 40 maps and a gazetteer.
