Summary

Describes the activities of the Knights Templar, a group of knights who took vows like a monastic order and fought violently against the Saracens during the Crusades. Malcolm Barber, the world's leading Templar historian, explores the impressive rise and rapid fall of a group ahead of its time. Did the Knights cause the Crusades to ultimately fail? What happened to the surviving warriors of the Order? And-- even more important-- was there a secret treasure and where might it be now?
