This is an unusual study that analyzes the ground and places against that analysis the accounts of this 13th century crusader battle. French knights from norther France under the Count de Montfort, about 1,000 knights and men-at-arms total, engage a Franco-Spanish army of Albegensian heretics, under Pedro II of Spain. This includes an analysis of the tactics employed. Most unusual work. Originially published 1878.
