Title: Not Coded
Review: A balanced unbiased introduction to the history and workings of the Knights Templar, minus any of the Dan-Brown-DaVinci-Code-Holy-Grail sensationalism. This book details the struggles of the knights to fight the Muslims, other greedy Christians, and the competing holy order of Hospitalers as well as their struggle to maintain personal vows and political organization. Having just a read a book on the 3rd Crusade prior to reading this I would say there are some differences between the books re: historical accuracy of the plots, people and plans of the crusades in large, but either way this book is gives a good understanding of the 300-year existence from birth of the Knights in the desert of Arabia, their life as the heroes of crusading Europe, to their death by a greedy French King and a puppet Pope as the Templar property is seized, the knights are imprisoned or scattered and the Grand Master is burned alive at the stake in front of Notre Dame in Paris.
