The Knights Templar and Knights of Malta is a historical book written by J.S.M. Ward. The book provides a comprehensive account of the two most famous military orders of the Middle Ages - the Knights Templar and the Knights of Malta. The author takes the readers on a journey through the history of these two orders, from their formation to their downfall. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on the Knights Templar and the second part on the Knights of Malta. In the first part of the book, the author explores the origins of the Knights Templar, their rise to power, and their ultimate downfall. The author discusses the founding of the order, their role in the Crusades, their financial power, and their persecution by the Catholic Church. The author also examines the myths and legends surrounding the Knights Templar, including their supposed involvement in the Holy Grail and the Knights Templar treasure.In the second part of the book, the author turns his attention to the Knights of Malta. The author provides a detailed account of the history of this order, including their founding, their role in defending Europe against the Ottoman Empire, and their involvement in the Napoleonic Wars. The author also discusses the modern-day activities of the Knights of Malta, including their humanitarian work and their diplomatic activities.Overall, The Knights Templar and Knights of Malta is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history of the Middle Ages and the military orders that played a significant role during that time. The book is well-researched and provides a balanced view of both orders, debunking many of the myths and legends that have grown up around them over the centuries.THIS 20 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Higher Degrees in Freemasonry, by J.
