The book traces the way in which the Templars received support from Kings and became a part of feudal society with diverse holdings across the entire country. It also charts the increasing power of the Templars, which led to the exploitation of land and people in order to finance the Crusades. The book outlines the earlier origins of the financial system in England and how the royal and financial roles of the Temple spread to connections across Europe. It concludes by looking at the factors that ultimately led to the defeat and dispersion of the Templars.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Evelyn Lord\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/21\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 366\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.76lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.72h x 5.06w x 1.09d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781405801638\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvelyn Lord is an expert in the local history of Britain and the author of \"Investigating the Twentieth Century \"(2000) and \"The Stuarts' Secret Army \"(2004).
