The Enigma of the Knights Templar

In this, the second in our Enigma series, author Marilyn Hopkins—in a beautifully illustrated, full-color hardcover—has written the definitive guide to all things Templar, including: the Temple and the myth; the rise of the Order of the Temple (1119–45); a church within a church, a state within a state (1145–1291); the fall and trial; the mystery of Templar origins; Temple Mount; the Holy Grail; the Temple and the Arab world; the Temple and heresy; heads of the Templars; Templars after 1314; and modern-day Templars.
