Crusade of Tears will transport you back to the 13th Century--the dark era of the Children's Crusade, when 50,000 French and German children were falsely inspired to reclaim the Holy City. Author C.D. Baker masterfully paints an unforgettable portrait that blends thoroughly researched historical accounts with a compellingly personal plot that focuses on a small band of pilgrims, led by stouthearted Wil, his eager brother Karl, and their gentle sister Maria. This realistic story of faith in the midst of extraordinary hardships will speak to you from across the centuries and far into the future. Click Here to Meet the Author Download the Readers' Guide.
