The Sepulchre of Christ and the Medieval West: From the Beginning to 1600, Colin Morris's 2005 study from Oxford University Press, traces the Holy Sepulchre's place in the medieval Western imagination across the whole medieval period. Its strength is a full length academic monograph from a major press covering the entire span rather than one episode. Its limit is that, like any single-author synthesis, it reflects one historian's selection and weighting of a vast source base; follow its own citations for a specific episode in more depth.
