When the Vatican condemned the Order of the Temple in 1312, many who escaped took to sea intent

on revenge on the Church. The missing Templar fleet later reappeared in the Mediterranean and later the Caribbean and posed a threat to the Church's maritime commerce. THE TEMPLAR PIRATES tells the story of the birth and conduct of piracy on the New World seas, providing an important link between Templar history and Church interactions and piracy as a whole. Any collection strong in Templar or Catholic history will find this absorbing and unusual--and many a general interest library will find it interesting for its insights on early pirates, as well.
