From the publisher's blurb, "most studies of medieval history discuss the relationship between serf and master, tradesmen and the Crown, almost ignoring the fact that hundreds of wars, large and small, were fought every year in Europe, that the Crusades altered medieval society, and the crusades represented a series of large-scale conflicts throughout Eastern Europe and the Middle-East, and that major wars like the Hundred Years' War completely transformed the societies of Britain and France, creating, in large measure, the modern nation-state."
