Sobre este artículo
Oxford, England: Osprey Publishing. Near Fine. 1986. Paperback. 0850456827 . Men-At-Arms Series; 9.5 X 7.1 X 0.2 inches; 48 pages; Soft cover has white spine with black lettering. Slight rubbing, scuffing to covers. Pages are clean and tight; appears as if unused. Illustrated with many b/w pictures and 8 color plates. #171 in the Men-At-Arms series. 'Salah al Din Yusif ibn Ayyub, known to his Muslim contemporaries as al Nasi, 'The Victorious', and to an admiring Europe as Saladin, is the most famous single figure in the history of the Crusades, being even better known outside the English-speaking world than his Christian foe Richard the Lionheart. Traditionally portrayed as a quiet, deeply religious and even humble man, Saladin was a typical product of his day and his culture. This title shows how the societies and military systems that he and his successors led from defeat to eventual triumph were far more sophisticated than is generally realised, and brings vividly to life the history, organisation, arms and armour of Saladin and the Saracens'. Index. .

David Nicolle was born in 1944 and was educated at Highgate School. For eight years he worked in the BBC Arabic Service.

For some years he taught art and architectural history at Yarmuk University, Jordan. David has written many Osprey titles, including Men-At-Arms 140 Armies of the Ottoman Turks, Men-At-Arms 320 Armies of the Caliphates 862–1098, and Campaign 43 Fornovo 1495.
