Has any else noticed that the 1st-4th Crusades seem to get all the attention and all the others seem forgotten? Any thoughts?

Just ask Sir Nathan about the Baltic Crusades! ;-)

What about the Reconquista? It started out as just a military conquest, but wasn't it eventually sanctioned by the Pope and turned into a crusade of its own?

I'm interested in the later Crusades, but there are very few historical works that cover the subject. Everyone seems more focused on the 1st and the 3rd.

That's true. When people collectively refer to "The Crusades", they often mean 1-3. The later crusades had some different political and economic influences, and of course Jerusalem wasn't taken back, so people tend to gloss over it.
