Helen Nicholson is Professor of Medieval History at Cardiff University, Wales, UK.
'Helen Nicholson has produced both a superbly readable translation and added considerably to our understanding of the genesis of an undoubtedly important text.' English Historical Review 'This excellent translation of Stubb’s Rolls Series edition (1864) of the most comprehensive, near-contemporary history of the Third Crusade will be an immense boon to all students of the crusade and of the crusading movement in general...Thanks to Dr. Nicholson, students can now read an enthralling account of the dramatic five years between Saladin’s victory at Hattin in 1187 and the truce negotiated by Richard I in 1192, that fierce conflict which Richard de Templo saw as an inter-continental struggle, Christian Europe taking on the combined forces of Muslim Asia and Africa.' The Catholic Historical Review
