Could anyone recommend some non-fiction books about relations between Christians and Muslims in the Medieval period?

Contextualising the Other in Christian Medieval Discourse, edited by J. Frakes seems to be rather helpful.

Anything relating to the Ottoman Empire and Venice. Also, try and look up anything on the Silk Road or the Indian Ocean Trade Routes. They usually have some link between Muslims and Christians.

I'm not even sure if this is what you mean, since these concentrate on the christian churches (catholic and orthodox) that lived under Islamic rule, and not specially on the Christian Europe/Islamic states thing.

Some of the contributions in [Gervers & Bikhazi, Conversion and Continuity, Indigenous Christian Communities in Islamic Lands Eight to Eighteenth Centuries, Pontifical Institute of Medieaval Studies: Toronto, 1990] address this, especially Elias El Hayek pp. 407-422 and Linda S. Northrup pp. 253-261

looking up the Pact of Umar might help, too
