Join J Stephen Roberts and guest Dr. Stephen Donnachie as they explore the military styles of both the Frankish Crusaders and their various Saracen opponents, including the Seljuk Turks. We take a look at their weapons, tactics, and then look at how these two elements played out in three major battles: the Battle of Dorylaeum (1097), the Battle of Ager Sanguinis (1119), and the Battle of Azaz (1125).
