The Libellus de expugnatione Terrae Sanctae per Saladinum (or Little Book about the Conquest of the Holy Land by ala al-Din) is the most substantial contemporary Latin account of the conquest of the Kingdom of Jerusalem in 1187.

This book provides an English translation of the Libellus accompanied by a new, comprehensive critical edition of the Latin text and a detailed study in the introduction.
