Crusader King : A Novel of Baldwin Iv and the Crusades

A new historical novel about the unusual life of King Baldwin IV of Jerusalem, the leper crusader king who - despite ascending to the throne at only 13, his early death at 24 and his debilitating disease - performed great and heroic deeds in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds. Teenagers and avid readers of all ages will be amazed at this story and be inspired by a faith that accomplished the impossible! King Amalric could see his son's eyes grow wide with horror and the color drain from his face at the sight, and the monarch's fatherly heart went out to him.
