Synopsis
In The Warriors and the Bankers, the research and writing team of Alan Butler and Stephen Dafoe bring their combined experiences to bear on the question asked for hundreds of years, What became of the Knights Templar? Arrested in 1307, dissolved in 1312 and executed by 1314, the Templars have been the subject of many theories concerning their possible survival. This book examines these theories against new evidence and information. Additionally the authors put forth, for the first time, a completely NEW theory that has caught the ears, eyes and attention of many readers.
The ultimate conclusion is that the Templars did survive, virtually intact, and that, in a very direct sense, they may still be one of the most potent forces at work in the world at the start of the new Millennium. The Warriors and the Bankers is eminently readable and is intended for both the serious student of Templarism or simply the interested observer.

Review
" This most recent piece of galvanic scholarship cuts through the muck of cloudy suppositions to reveal an entirely new way of looking at a most mysterious and influential fraternal order. Got a hankerchief? Keep it handy. You'll need it to wipe up the bits of your preconceived notions, which will be thoroughly blown apart." -- Tracy R. Twyman Editor Dagobert's Revenge Magazine
"Every page was food for thought and provocative in its implications of the Templar history and subsequent survival. A must read for the etherial and esoteric history buff. From now on I'll seek out other books by the authors. I loved this unexpected little gem of a book and will definatly tell my friends about it." -- Adam Prescot Sudbury, Ontario.
"I just finished your book The Warriors and The Bankers. What an intriguing concept about the formation of Switzerland. After reading this, I must say that I agree with your conclusion, it makes perfect sense as to where and how they escaped from Le Bel." -- Frank Karwowski Commander of St.George's #37 Schenectady, NY
