Since their descent into oblivion in 1307 from their position as probably the most powerful institution of the Middle Ages, the Knights Templar has been a source of fascination for countless people, and the subject of much historical research. In this comprehensive and beautifully illustrated book, Templar expert Alan Butler presents in great detail their tumultuous history from their humble beginnings to their destruction some 200 years later. This book covers every aspect and theory relating to the Templar Order, including their association with Freemasonry. Also detailed is all of the latest research including Butler's own proposition that key members of the order escaped with their fabled Templar treasure to present-day Switzerland where they were to continue to carry out one of their major activities as bankers to the world. The recently issued facsimile of their trial by the Vatican court, proving their innocence of all charges brought againt them is examined, as is the current claim for 100bn against the Roman Catholic Church for property seized illegally and by the descendants of the original Order in Spain.
