I would have liked Abu-Lughod to focus on the interaction between the two ports and explain more about the two cities tactics and survival strategies after these battles. I thought it was also interesting how the Crusades brought the east and west together. It would make me wonder that if the Crusades wouldn’t have occurred, would these two cities have been this powerful?Dominique A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15269753806129651960noreply@blogger.com
