Not included
This groundbreaking study examines the far-reaching history of three very different medieval organizations: the Assassins of the Middle East, the Knights Templar of Europe, and the Secret Tribunals of Westphalia. Sophisticated and widely used, it provides insights into such modern secret societies as the Freemasons and Illuminati.
