A History & Mythos of the Knights Templar
The Knights Templar were the best-known of the Military Orders that existed during the crusades. Formed somewhere between the years of 1118 and 1120 AD, the Templars went on to amass a great wealth in terms of land, revenue and manpower. This wealth was built through a combination of special privileges and the ingenuity and back-breaking efforts of the Order itself.
The Templars thrived for nearly two centuries, until the year 1307, when the Knights Templar or France were arrested by that country's monarch. Over the next five years, the imprisoned knights, sergeants and serving members were put to torture to extract confessions. Finally, the Templars were dissolved by the papal bull vox in excelso, written by Pope Clement V.
The past seven centuries have seen the story of the Templars develop an elaborate mythos. The purpose of this web site, began in 1997, is to help sort the fact from the fiction about the Knights Templar, as well as explain the many modern groups who have taken their name.

New Book On The Templars
In Nobly Born, author Stephen Dafoe presents the fascinating story of the Knights Templar in pictures and prose as he examines not only the history of the Knights Templar, but the history of the world in which they operated. It was a world where political and personal interests often overshadowed the greater mission of the crusades - a world in which yesterday's enemy could become today's ally.

About the Book
There have been many books written about the Knights Templar in recent years. Unfortunately, the vast majority of them have perpetuated myths about the Templars that were created almost the second the Order ceased to exist.
If there was some hidden treasure or secret knowledge, the Templars found it - or so the speculative authors would have us believe. However, the true story of the Templars is every bit as fascinating as the speculative theories created to explain just what the Templars were up to over their two century long reign as Christendom's most famous and infamous warrior monks.
In Nobly Born, author Stephen Dafoe presents this fascinating story in pictures and prose as he examines not only the history of the Knights Templar, but the history of the world in which they operated. It was a world where political and personal interests often overshadowed the greater mission of the crusades - a world in which yesterday's enemy could become today's ally.
As East and West once again wrestle with each other in a battle of ideaologies, Nobly Born is perhaps one of the most important books you will read this year.
Autographed copy of Nobly Born and bonus
During the past few months, many people have requested autographed copies of my new book Nobly Born and I'm now making that option available.
Unfortunately, authors do not receive the same massive discounts as the brick-and-mortar-super-book-stores do. As such, I cannot offer the same MASSIVE DISCOUNTS that some online retailers offer.
But what I can offer that they cannot is a signed and personalized first edition hard cover copy and an extremely cool keychain replica of the seal of the original Knights Templar, as talked about in one of the chapters of the book.
