>>	Anonymous Sat Jun 18 01:58:41 2016 No.8175395 yeah, non-fiction

>>	Mods Sat Jun 18 04:23:06 2016 No.8175648 Riley-Smith's The Crusades and Hillenbrand's. Riley-Smith gives a Catholic perspective and Hillenbrand an Islamic.

Christopher Tyerman's Gods's War is worth a look.
Also, you could focus on some of the religious orders. The Monks of War: The Military Religious Orders by Desmond Seward was interesting.
I like the Templars so found The New Knighthood: A History of the Order of the Temple by Malcolm Barber to be super interesting.
