Looking for best crusader lit: anything like first-hand accounts, epic poems, even respectable fiction written a hundred years or so after they ended. Specifically looking for 1st Crusade, but any will do.

Crusades Through Arab Eyes. I was suspicious of it at first but it's a really fascinating account with some especially badass shit about Dicky Lionheart becoming a cannibal etc.

Robert de Clari's (a soldier, he's said to've been more factual than most) account of the Fourth might interest you

They're both great. Furioso is extremely entertaining and unputdownable.
