This is a learned book and a fine testimony to its author's firm
grasp on her subject. [...] This book makes a valuable contribution
to the burgeoning studies of women and the crusades, and is
recommended for its careful methodological approach and its
thorough scholarship.
*CRUSADES*
A thoroughly researched, scholarly survey of the role and depiction
of royal and noble women in the crusades to the Middle East and the
so-called 'crusader states'. Provides a good general introduction
to medieval women's history and the modern historiography of
medieval women, which will recommend it to students and their
lecturers. This is a valuable contribution to scholarship, which
will be useful not only to students but also to any scholar
studying medieval women or the crusades and the crusader
states.
*EHR*
Hodgson's work makes a worthwhile addition to a typically
male-dominated area of research.
