Product Description

If I am not worthy to regain Jerusalem, I am not worthy to look upon it. King Richard I, The story of the Crusades. For nearly two centuries, generations of knights from England and Western Europe marched to do battle with the Saracen hordes who occupied the Holy Land. Bitter and bloody, these great battles are known to history as the Crusades. Perhaps most famous of all was Richard the Lionheart¹s struggle with the Emperor Saladin on the burning sands of Palestine in 1190. The Crusades Knights of Christ features atmospheric reconstruction footage and spectacular computer effects to tell the dramatic story of the great conflict between Christianity and Islam. The programme also features dramatised eye-witness accounts and expert comment and analysis. Narrated by Terry Molloy

Customer Reviews

Half and half
Though the comments are good and very informative.The film is a bit funny...I often thought I was watching monthy python...The comedians are dressed like kids in a school play...Cardboards everywhere ...At one time I expected them to ride on wooden horses...Better listen to it than watch it...
