Answer 1

A lot of historians have written about the Knights Templar. It is a very popular topic.

Here are some of the "serious" historians and their books: -

Stephen Howarth: "The knights Templar"

Sean Martin: "The Knights Templar: the History and Myths of the legendary order"

Peter Partner: "The Knights Templar and Their Myth"

Charles G. Addison: "The History of the Knights Templars"

Malcolm Barber: "The New Knighthood : A History of the Order of the Temple"

John J. Robinson: "Dungeon Fire and Sword".

Dan Brown: "The da Vinci Code"

Michael Baigent, Richard Leigh, and Henry Lincoln: "Holy Blood, Holy Grail"

Edward Burman: "Templars: knights of God"

Lynn Picknett & Clive Prince: "Templar Revelation:
Secret Guardians Of The True Identity Of Christ"

Christoher Knight: "Second Messiah: Templars, The Turin Shroud & The Great Secret Of Freemasonry"

Steven Sora: "Lost Treasure of the Knights Templar"
