Crusades O'Clock Episode 23 - The Tragedy of Raymond of Toulouse 1102-5

Raymond, Raymond, we have missed you.

Herein lies a summary of Raymond's work and deeds, and especially his efforts to besiege the port city of Tripoli.

You have to respect his audacity - appointing himself Count of Tripoli before he had even taken the city from the Muslims!

He also fights some pretty awesome battles, builds a massive castle with a seriously cool name, and then falls through a burning roof. What's not to love about this guy?

But does he take Tripoli in the end?

All will be revealed... #Crusades #Toulouse #suspense #castles
