History book on The Crusades

Posted by Lou on 1/9/26 at 8:12 am
I'm looking for a book, or author, with a bare bones historical account of the Crusades. It is a very touchy subject because of religion, so emotions are hard to contain when talking about it, I understand that. That's why I am here at the librarian's desk privately and respectfully asking. I want the most boring, emotionless account of the battles that took place. Names, dates, places - just the police report with no unnecessary adjectives. Anyone have a good recommendation ?
Thats because Christians are far more violent than non Christians. Oh wait
If you took the sin out of government, we would have a surplus.
Apples and Oranges. The Bible doesn't teach followers of Jesus Christ to kill anyone for any reason, let alone not converting to the religion. According to the Quran, anyone who doesn't convert is an infidel, and can be put to death.

Good morning and Happy Thanksgiving everyone. I hope you eat too much, laugh too much, love your loved ones, and take a rest.

Wire fraud - scammed

Posted by Lou on 10/25/25 at 5:22 pm
Older guy I know of made a mistake and wired $10,000 to a scammer. He contacted his banks fraud department and they said the money is gone and there is nothing they can do. Is there such a thing as "fraud collectors" that attempt to recover the money, for a fee? Or is it even possible to track exactly where the money went.
It's a birdie, but only if I can make that putt.

Absolutely. October baseball is special for sure.
