In this video, we discuss the climactic event of the Third Crusade: the Battle of Jaffa of 1192, in which Richard the Lionheart thwarted Saladin's attempt to capture Jaffa from the Crusaders. This battle is a pivotal moment in the course of the Third Crusade, and ultimately meant that Richard's would be the victorious in the long-term. Featuring primary source quotes from Baha ad-Din and Ernoul, as well as closing thoughts from historian Andrew Ehrenkreutz.
The musings and meandering thoughts of a crotchety old man as he observes life in the world and in a small, rural town in South East Nebraska. I hope to help people get to Heaven by sharing prayers, meditations, the lives of the Saints, and news of Church happenings. My Pledge: Nulla dies sine linea ~ Not a day without a line.

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Leo XIV as the Vicar of Christ, the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
