BOOKS
The Truth, Goodness, & Beauty found in good literature
provide an immersive experience that can lead us closer to Jesus.
The literary depictions of Jesus and the heroic examples of faith in the lives and writings of the saints are extremely edifying in our journeys of faith. Even fictional stories can highlight beautiful facets of our faith, the rewards of virtue, & the misery of sin. They portray powerful archetypes of good & evil which all point to THE great cosmic drama in which the Lord created us out of love, pursued our hearts throughout human history, & redeemed us when Jesus won the decisive victory over sin & death by being crucified for us, & rising again to open the gates of heaven.

THE GLORY OF THE CRUSADES
by Steve Weidenkopf
The author presents a compelling case for understanding the Crusades as they were when they happened: armed pilgrimages driven by a holy zeal to recover conquered Christian lands. Without whitewashing their failures and even crimes, he debunks the numerous myths about the Crusades that our secular culture uses as clubs to attack the Church.
THE GLORY OF THE CRUSADES
by St. Bernard of Clairvaux
This is the original, primitive rule of the Templars. It contains the rules and laws for life within their chivalric military order.
IN PRAISE OF THE NEW KNIGHTHOOD
A Treatise on the Knights Templar and the Holy Places of Jerusalem
by St. Bernard of Clairvaux
Voices the cleric's view of the knights, warfare, and the conquest of the Holy Land in five chapters on the knight's vocation. Then, in another eight chapters the abbot who never visited the Holy Land provides a spiritual tour of the pilgrimage sites guarded by this 'new kind of knighthood.'
THE NEW KNIGHTHOOD: A HISTORY OF THE ORDER OF THE TEMPLE (VOLUME ONE)
by Malcolm Barber
The author concisely and in detail describes the Templar history from records as are now available, both western and eastern. The first five chapters discusses the origins of the order, the concept of a military monastic organization, the rise of the Templars from their simple roots, to the last years of the Order in Outremer.
THE TRIAL OF THE TEMPLARS (VOLUME TWO)
by Malcolm Barber
Finding resonances between the fourteenth-century trial and contemporary events, Barber's classic account endeavours to tackle the unresolved controversies surrounding the consequences of the trial, and includes discussions in the context of new work on the crusades, heresy, the papacy and the French monarchy.
THE CRUSADES: A CAPTIVATING GUIDE TO THE MILITARY EXPEDITIONS
THE KNIGHTS TEMPLAR AT WAR 1120–1312
Highly illustrated study focusing on how this military order executed its wars. The order was founded as a response to attacks on pilgrims in the Holy Land, and it was involved in countless battles and sieges, always at the forefront of crusading warfare. This absorbing study examines why they were such an important aspect of medieval warfare on the frontiers of Christendom for nearly 200 years.
THE KNIGHTS TEMPLAR
An Enthralling History of the Rise and Fall of the Most Influential Catholic Military Order
THE TEMPLARS: KNIGHTS OF CHRIST
by Regine Pernoud
For centuries, historians and novelists have portrayed the Knights Templar as avaricious and power-hungry villains. Who were these medieval monastic knights, whose exploits were the stuff of legend even in their own day? The author draws a different portrait of these Christian warriors. From their origins as defenders of pilgrims to the Holy Land to their dramatic finish as heretics burned at the stake, Pernoud offers a concise but thorough account of the Templars' contribution to Christendom.
