		The significance of William of Tyre’s account of the First Crusade to the early twenty-first century historian is that his account became the best known scholarly account of the First Crusade during the Middle Ages.
		For instance, we are not presented with a full explanation of Archbishop William of Tyre’s version of events or its own historical standing as a secondary source for the First Crusade; this is apparently assumed knowledge, but no references are given for the benefit of the non-expert.
