"Fourth Crusade: Conquest of Constantinople" by Jonathan Phillips: "In April 1204, the armies of the Fourth Crusade broke into the city of Constantinople and began to loot, pillage, and slaughter their way across the greatest metropolis in the Christian world. Within months Pope Innocent III, the man who had first called for the Crusade, bitterly lamented the spilling of 'blood on Christian swords that should have been used on pagans' and described the expedition as 'an example of affliction and the works of Hell.'"

The Crusades: Definitely the place to big one's look into the Crusades. Even though the course is for students at Boise State University, most of the material of open for viewing. An excellent example not only of a site dedicated to the Crusades, but also of how a course can be made to work on-line.
