Cathar Castles : Fortresses of the Albigensian Crusade 1209-1300

Omtale

In the early 12th century AD, a large part of what we think of as France was not under the direct control of the French King who's authority stretched little further than Paris. This book describes the so-called 'Cathar castles', why they were positioned where they were, and how well those they withstood the realities of the Albigensian Crusade.
