Paul Halsall The Crusades: Bibliography Created. 2001. Last Update: April 28, 2019. This bibliography of literature on the Crusades in English was prepared for courses I taught 2001-2005. It is not meant to be exhaustive, but it is meant to point to the main sources (where English translations are available) and secondary works on the major areas of Crusade historiography. I undertook a major update in April 2019. Because some people might be interested in what happened in published research the roughly 20 years since this was first compiled a separate document on works since c. 2000 is available.
