In the course of this study I have been fortunate to receive the assistance,
advice, and goodwill of a great many people. Foremost amongst these has been
Professor Jonathan Riley-Smith. His patience, sound judgement, and enthusiasm
have been fundamental in the completion of this project. I acknowledge his help
with much gratitude. Several others have shown a kind interest in this work,
most notably Dr Peter Edbury who devoted much time and effort to suggesting a
number of important modifications. Dr Marcus Bull generously agreed to read
draft versions of several chapters and offered many constructive comments. I
would also like to thank Professor Bernard Hamilton, Professor John Gillingham,
and Dr Simon Lloyd for their most useful observations. The inspirational
teaching of Dr Peter Jackson at the University of Keele did much to spark my
interest in the crusades. I have also benefited from conversations with Dr
Thomas Asbridge and Mr W. Zajac. In addition, I would like to thank Professor H.
R. Loyn, Miss J. Chrysostomides, Dr D. E. Greenway, Professor R. Hill, Dr A. V.
Murray, and Dr Th. De Hemptinne for their help and advice at various stages in
this work.

I am grateful to the British Academy for providing me with a Major State
Studentship to undertake my initial research, and I also acknowledge the
backing of the Scouloudi Foundation for my year as a Research Fellow at the
Institute of Historical Research, London. The staff and students in the History
Departments of the Universities of Southampton and York all made me feel
extraordinarily welcome during my periods of teaching there. I have also valued
the consistent support of Professor F. C. R. Robinson of the History Department
at Royal Holloway, University of London during my time as a research student
and now as a member of staff. Away from the world of academia I would like to
take this opportunity to thank the following for their interest and friendship: Mr
A.J. Rose, Mr D. A. Griffiths, (p.viii) and Mr L. P. Old, who bear particular
responsibility for ensuring that I have kept my feet on terra firma. The following
individuals must be identified as well: I. Jenkins, L. and J. Barry, E. Fuller, H. D.
and J. Tarpey, A. Henson, and T. Sasse. I also thank Mr G. Dempsey for his kind
loan of a word processor.
My thanks to Dr Tony Morris, and to the Delegates and staff of Oxford University
Press, particularly Anna Illingworth and Alison Kelly, for their forebearance and
professionalism in bringing this work to fruition.
My greatest debts are to Suzanne Dempsey for her constant encouragement,
patience, and affection. To my grandparents for their kind wishes. Most
particularly to my parents, for their unstinting and good-humoured support, both
material and otherwise, throughout my education. Childhood visits to castles
produced a greater interest in medieval history than anticipated!
