As the author shows in this book, any notion that 'Christian Europe' has long been opposed by a 'Muslim non-Europe' misrepresents the facts of a complex and shared history. The motivations for these interfaith alliances were dictated by shifting diplomacies, self-interest and realpolitik, not by Jihad or religious war.
