History in 20: Saladin

History in 20

Welcome back to the History in 20 Podcast!

This time we are discussing Salah al-din Yusuf ibn Ayyub, better known as Saladin. He was born in c. 1137 in Damascus, Syria and fought numerous campaigns in Egypt, Syria, the Crusader States and famously survived the Third Crusade, where he came up against Richard I (Richard the Lionheart) and his forces on more than one occasion.

Saladin is undoubtedly one of the most formidable military leaders in history, and I hope this podcast does him some justice.
