'The editor, Malcolm Barber, is to be congratulated for the way in which he has given to this collection a coherence rarely achieved in works of this kind...this excellent book..leaves the reader anxious to find out more.' The Catholic Historical Review 'All scholars and students interested in the related areas of the Order of the Militia of the Temple, the crusades, and heresy will rejoice in the appearance of this collection...Barber has provided a marvellous collection in this volume. Any crusades historian, historian of the Latin East, or specialist in heresy or the military orders would omit this material at his or her peril. The exhaustive notes, especially to primary sources, make these articles a veritable treasure trove.' Parergon, Vol. 15, No. 2
