I just finished reading "The Crusader" by Michael Alexander Eisner. I was rapt from the very beginning, and feel like this book deserves a lot of credit. He meticulously researched the crusades to be able to tell a tale of war and the reasoning behind it that makes sharp comparison with stuff going on now (Iraq, Afghanistan, etc.). Plus, the corruption involved in the church is just too good not to find fascinating.
I recommend everyone give this a try, especially if you're interested in the time period (8th Crusade, Late 1200's AD).
