Savory, R.M. Christendom vs. Island: interaction and co-existence via WWW, Feb. 22, 2005 ("In fact, not a single crowned head accompanied the crusading host, variously estimated at between 100,000 and 600,000 men, which assembled at Constantinope in 1096-7. For this reason the first Crusade is sometimes termed the 'Barons' Crusade.'")
