(3) YA Intricate details of late-eleventh-century life enrich this story of religious prejudice, unfaltering courage, and the friendship between two girls, one Christian, one Jewish. Leeds's emotive narrative centers on the 1096 Crusades and their catastrophic consequences for Jews inhabiting towns and villages on the Rhine River in what would become Germany. A map, author's note, and list of foreign phrases are included. Glos.
