Thomas Madden's The Concise History of the Crusades.

Real Crusades History. This will piss off /leftypol/ but he is extremely knowledgeable and has other academic historians on as guests all the time. Very in depth.

Google "Glory of the Crusades."

Also DO NOT play the first Assassins Creed.

Is RealCrusadeHistory supposedly biased?

He frames the narrative in a way which is not apologetic to Muslim aggression/imperialism. This is considered politically incorrect. Many of the crusaders were no angels but neither were the Muslims.

The Crusades: The Authoritative History of the War for the Holy Land by Thomas Asbridge was recommended to me by historians.
