Two new books on the Crusades
Christopher Tyerman - God's War: A New History of the Crusades
Belknap Press, 2006
ISBN 0-674-02387-0
At over a thousand pages, this is a thick book that deals mostly with the crusades in the Latin East.
Nikolas Jaspert, The Crusades
Routledge, 2006
ISBN: 0-415-35967-8
Translation by Phyllis G. Jestice. Less than 200 pages, so not as comprehensive as Tyerman's book. Gives a small overview of many topics. Seems useful to me, but I haven't read much of it yet.
