Thanks to the stratagems of Bohemund de Hauteville, leader of the Apulian Normans, the Crusade has taken the city of Antioch, and just in time. Once the besiegers, Bohemund and his men are about to become the besieged - a huge Turkish-led army, commanded by the fearsome General Kerbogha, is fast approaching. Provisions are needed to support not only the army, but also thousands of camp followers and pilgrims. But the surrounding countryside is near barren and the storerooms of Antioch much depleted. It soon becomes obvious that the Crusaders cannot hold out for long without falling prey to starvation.

Work Description
"Bohemund takes a firm grip on the city despite the depleted crusading army thinned by death, disease and defection. Meanwhile, Tancred seeks his fortune in taking Jerusalem for the Christian faith. No longer is the Holy City in the hands of the Arabs, but held by the mighty Islamic Fatamids of Egypt. Tancred is the first onto the walls and a leader when it comes to entering the city, but it remains to be seen if he will rise to the position of Prince of Legend"--Provided by publisher.
