A SWEEPING HISTORY OF THE LEGENDARY WARRIOR-MONKS - The Dramatic History of the Knights Templar, The Most Powerful Military Order of the Crusades
Piers Paul Read
from the editor:
In 1099, the city of Jerusalem, a possession of the Islamic Caliphate for over four hundred years, fell to an army of European knights intent on restoring the Cross to the Holy Land. From the ranks of these holy warriors emerged an order of monks trained in both scripture and the military arts: The Knights of the Temple of Solomon, called the Templars.
In this engrossing chronicle, spanning three centuries, Piers Paul Read tells the bloody story of the Templars' rise to political and financial power throughout Europe and the Holy Land, their catastrophic fall, and their far-reaching legacy. Drawing on the most recent scholarship, Read blends historical authority with novelistic excitement to create the first complete history of the vaunted and feared warriors whose remarkable order still captures our imaginations today.
"An engrossing and beautifully written work of popular history. Unfolds like a well-structured crime novel." -BOOKLIST
"In telling the remarkable story of the Templars, Read-gives depth to a subject astonishing enough without fantasies." -SUNDAY TELEGRAPH
PIERS PAUL READ studied history at Cambridge University and has written twelve acclaimed novels and three works of nonfiction, among them the international bestseller Alive. His novels have won the Hawthornden Prize and the Geoffrey Faber, Somerset Maugham, and James Tait Black awards. He lives in London.
