My first take on them is that the Priest's cowl is too small when used over the head.


  Hmmmmm ... to small he says  ;)

*And the door swings shut* It fits my mellon, but is not as volumous as the hood that GM Extrordanaire Lucas de Beaumanoir sports.... :P

The Knights Templar on Trial: The Trial of the Templars in the British Isles, 1308-11
Helen J. Nicholson

The loss of Acre in 1291 marked the beginning of the end of the Templars. They returned to Europe a far weaker organization. They were however, still well regarded so it came as a great shock when the Templar Brothers of France were arrested in 1307 on the orders of King Phillip IV. Other Christian monarchs followed the lead and the trial of the Templars in Britain began. This study covers the period between the start of the trials in early 1308 and the dissolution of the order in July 1311. The trials took a different course in England from those in mainland Europe with Edward II reluctant to obey the instructions of the papal investigators. The Templars did not confess to anything and the nobles and bishops did not cooperate with the investigators. Eventually in 1311 the church councils rejected all heresies and the Templars asked to be readmitted to the church.

Yes, it is a sign! I hope that it's released with the cover she agreed upon, and not the abomination that seems to be making the rounds of UK originating Templar books. :P

This is what Amazon is showing. It appears to be two images representing the order of St. John on the cover. Thats interesting, a book about Templars with Hospitallers on the cover.....Brilliant!

That is the correct image. She pulled it from the wall of a Temple church in France. From a previous book she wrote, most commoners had a tendancy to equate both the Templars and Hospitallers as "one" Order.

Well we went to GARF today. Dodging weather most of the day. It was a lovely 80 degrees with a near 100% humidity....geez...it was marching through Egypt on the 5th Crusade again! :'(



For the short period of time we were there, the Princess enjoyed herself greatly, and we actually encountered another Brother of the Temple at the southern end of the Kingdom. ;D
