Studying Jews in medieval Europe as part of my Deviance and Nonconformity module. Very clear and well put together video :)

Very interesting, Barry.

Very well made film. As for this not being known, I think it is very much part of the Third Crusade which is the best known crusade in the UK and an integral part of the story of Richard I.
