“Who were the Knights of Templar? How was it that these powerful and wealthy warriors found themselves vilified and accused of the most depraved crimes? Through contemporary sources, including transcripts made by papal notaries, Burman provides a detailed account of the sensational three-month trial in Paris in 1310, which stunned observers, and reflects on the background to the myths surrounding the Order which led to their arrest.”
