Dear Megan,
Elizabeth Siberry (1980s) and Palmer A. Throop are the two standard
reference works. Hope this helps, and sorry for the imprecision
(writing from the computer room).
Some of the most vehement criticism of various 'abuses' of the
crusade--fraudulent dispensations from crusading vows, etc., came from
its strongest supporters, who were sometimes disillusioned by the
imperfect realization of their ideal (often varying) of what a crusade
should be.
