    Concise, detailed, accurate, but no illustrations.
  

*by E***O on Reviewed in the United States on February 11, 2013*

If you want a throrough history of the knights templars, plus a review of all the conspiracy theories of how it allegedly survives to the present day this may be your book.  However, one of the reasons I bought this book was out of nostalgia for knights in shining armor and my inner history buff's infatuation with the crusades.  The lack of colored pictures makes me think I should have bought another book, or at least a more illustrated one in addition to this.  This is more suited to those who just want the historical facts and post disbandment theories in a short amount of time.  I did buy the downloadable PC game Medieval: Total War, which did satisfy my desire to see Templars in action in full color, also from Amazon.  So I guess I used this book as something of an historical companion to it.

    The Almighty Templars Revealed!
  

*by J***N on Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2006*

This being my 1st book about this particular topic, "The Knights Templar" was a very easy read, and I think a good start in the field of Templar History.  Sean Martin breaks everything out in a very understandable way.  He discusses their origin and how The Templars began.  He makes note of all the different kings, and various religious orders involved in the Crusades. After viewing the wonderful film, "Kingdom Of Heaven" recently released - you see some great characters come to life again, namely: Saladin, King Guy, King Baldwin the leper, etc).I like the way Sean Martin explains the mysteries in the last section of the book.  He goes into detail about the myths surrounding this unbelievable organization.  Also, towards the end of the book, we see the decline of The Templars.  It goes to show that when someone/some organization gets too powerful, the government will do whatever is necessary to rid the world of their existence.  The same practice is still present in today's society!  Nevertheless, it's still hard to believe that anyone had the ability to take The Templars down (being as rich, powerful, and influential as they were).  *They had received papal bulls from Pope Innocent II (and a few popes to follow) which granted them unprecedented power without having to answer to anyone, kings included - simply amazing!  The Templars had "divine power" (answering solely to the pope) and they used that leverage to their advantage for any endeavor they pursued.  We'll never see that kind of institution again!I will definitely have to read this book again to get more acquainted with the times, important figures, events and so on.  For a small paperback, there is a lot of information to take in which makes this book a great little  treasure to have!  However, it will be a pleasure to read this book another time, and furthermore, I will use "The Knights Templar" as my guide to pursuing more books of the same interest.  I hope to expand my knowledge about The Templars, and the power they held like no one else in history!

    Good Read
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on September 14, 2013*

Very good read. Concise and not speculative. Before reading it I was kind of influenced by conspiracy theorists, Umberto Eco and Dan Brown. It seems to me now that the Templars were just instrument and then victims of the usual human machinations.Smartly the author does not delve into Grail and Treasure issues, commonly associated to the Templars, leaving to you a list of nice references.
