So far in our series on the First Crusade, we've discussed the failures in great detail. But what about the victories? Surely our Frankish friends had to taste some success, right?
Right you are indeed. After cruising through the Battle of Nicaea, the Crusaders would earn a massive dub, after the grueling and painfully slow Siege of Antioch.
This story has it all: human catapults, inside agents, comparisons to Lord of the Rings, and even a holy relic. It's a fun time!
Also shoutout to Ben Watson, wherever you are, we hope you're doing good.
