Product Description In the late eleventh century, tens of thousands of people—knights and peasants, men and women, priests and lords—set out on a long and arduous journey to retake the holy city of Jerusalem. They traveled thousands of miles across difficult terrain and into hostile territory. How did they accomplish this remarkable task? How did they move through such an ever-changing and diverse landscape? Logistics of the First Crusade: Acquiring Supplies amid Chaos looks at the plans that they made and the methods they implemented to sustain themselves on this remarkable expedition in an attempt to understand how they persisted on the First Crusade. The crusaders sought to implement order as they traveled, moving with intent and adapting when confronted with hardship. In the end, they succeeded largely through their logistical perseverance. Review This thoroughly researched and richly detailed study of supplying the First Crusade makes two important contributions. It demonstrates firstly that the crusaders were capable, thoughtful, effective, judicious, and—if necessary—ruthless in supplying themselves. Secondly, the First Crusade’s logistical success reveals more skillful leadership than previous scholarship has usually portrayed. -- Alex Roland, Duke University About the Author Gregory D. Bell is assistant professor in the Department of History and director of the Medieval Studies Program at Winthrop University.

Welcome to Cirque Sombre, a menagerie of surreal and astounding images brought forth from the mind of photographer Gregory Bell to the page utilizing A.I. art generation. This groundbreaking series was first created as a therapeutic process for Greg to begin healing from abuse. Strange, beautiful, and at times heartbreaking, this series explores the complex and confusing emotions that the artist himself processed after a toxic relationship."My series initially felt too painful to continue-it was cathartic but at the same time, each creation felt like a hole punched through my chest. It was becoming too much to bear.So then, instead of focusing only on my pain and triggers, I pivoted and added one of my favorite subjects into the process: vintage entertainment. From an aesthetic born of the circus and sideshow, mixed with some of those lingering feelings as I grappled with them...Cirque Sombre was born." -Gregory Bell, 2022
