The Battle of Muret in 1213 belongs to the context of the Albigensian Crusades, which kept southern France in suspense in the first half of the 13th century. At Muret, a French army met an alliance consisting of King Peter II of Aragon and southern French nobles who wanted to defend the independence of Occitania against the expansion of the French crown. The volume describes in detail the historical, political and military background of the battle, presents the forces involved in the fight and illustrates the course and consequences of the encounter, in which the Aragonese king met his death.
