"Fifteen-year-old Dolf uses a prototype time machine and gets stuck in the Middle Ages. Trying to find his way back to the twentieth century, he joins a children's crusade of almost ten thousand children on their way to the Holy Land. Dolf helps the children defy the terrible mountains, conquer disease and fight evil knights. Slowly, Dolf begins to realise that the real danger does not lurk behind the next mountaintop, but rather within the crusade itself."

An interesting premise, with commentary about religious mania and social status giving me pause for thought.
Since it’s publication in the 1970’s I think the genre of YA fiction has evolved to have more reflection and inner dialogue for the main characters. This was lacking here, which made the story a little shallow.
