«La Cruz y la Media Luna» is Richard Fletcher's historical essay on Christianity and Islam, published by Península in hardback (192 pages, in Spanish).
Richard Fletcher analyses the long relationship between Christianity and Islam, from the earliest contacts to Isabella the Catholic, and shows that Christians and Muslims coexisted and traded for centuries despite a mutual religious incomprehension that often led to violence.

For readers interested in medieval history, religion, and the relations between the Christian and Islamic worlds.
