About this book

People get a thrill from reading about knights in shining armor racing across the battlefield and doing all kinds of works of chivalry. This is a book about one of the best-known knights of the middle ages. Best of all, this is not fiction; the knights templar were very real, and their story is amazing. The story of the knights templar is traced from its beginning to its end. This book also includes some of the best-known legends and myths of the knights templar and how their influence is still felt today. The crusades come alive in the pages of this book. The knights templar was a formal force and personified the crusading spirit of the time. In this book, you will learn about the following: •The events from the 11th to the early 14th centuries and how they shaped the order •Different actors, from kings to ordinary knights, who defined the knights templar •The templars' involvement in the military endeavors of the known world •What caused the rise and downfall of the order of the knights templar •The truth behind templar allegations and its secretive nature •The twisted templar legacy and how it changed the way we viewed the world forever The knights templar existed officially for less than 200 years. Founded to protect pilgrims who were travelling through the holy lands, their rise to power was sudden. They became some of the most feared warriors in the region, they had a mandate from god, they controlled perhaps the world's first real banking system, and they waged war against anyone who tried to wrestle christianity's holiest grounds from the control of the catholic church. Within their short lifespan, they quickly became one of the most powerful societies in europe, if not the world.
