    Just got an improbably pristine copy of Volume Two! Gotta get to work in a minute, but it looks Brilliant. I like the consonance between how little Vasiliev has to say about Jean de Brienne, and how little books on the Crusades have to say about John III! Yep, I've Got something here. Thanks again, @manny9655.

    @manny9655, I'm making my leisurely way through it, mainly from Alexius I (skipping ahead from the indix when I couldn't wait), and it's already a highly valued complement to the crusader-centric stuff the rest of what I have preponderates to. Thanks again!

    I actually managed to pick up a well used hyperpyron from John III today, and that made this thread all the more enjoyable.
