1) "Crusading Warfare, 1097-1193" by R.C. Smail
A brief and concise introduction to the stated topic. While the book is by now a bit dated, I found it to be very readable for a non-specialist.

2) "Victory in the East: A Military History of the First Crusade" by John France
Starts a bit slowly with various campaigns in Western Europe I was not particularly interested in, but after that it was a nice in-depth presentation of the first crusade.
