A scholarly account
Roger Wickson captivated the Society last Thursday with a scholarly account of the Fourth Crusade. Roger told a tale of human endeavour and failings, commercial rivalry, religious fervour, intrigue and bad luck. This was a tale of how crusader knights started out to recover the Holy Land for Christianity and ended up sacking Christian Constantinople.
Roger produced a handout giving more details and references; see Handout
