Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The Poor Fellow-Soldiers of Christ and the Temple of Solomon, better known as the Knights Templar or simply the Templars, are the most famous of the Crusading knightly orders. Formed in 1119 to protect Christian pilgrims to the Holy Land, this curious hybrid of military unit and monastic brotherhood were the staunchest defenders of the Crusader States of Outremer for nearly two centuries. Knights joining the Templars renounced their worldly possessions and vowed to follow a strict code, which included the command to fight the infidel enemy bravely regardless of the odds. They provided Christian armies with a lethal cutting edge in open battle, launching fanatical charges to break the enemy formations, as well as garrisoning a network of forts as a stubborn bulwark against reconquest. Zvonimir Grbasic outlines their history, narrating many of their greatest victories and defeats in detail (such as Montgisard and the Horns of Hattin), describes their organisation and hierarchy, training and daily life. These elite warriors, both the knights and the lowlier ranks, are illustrated with the author's beautiful original paintings and drawings. AUTHOR: Zvonimir Grbasic was born in 1951 in Karlovac, Croatia. He graduated from the Faculty of Dentistry, University of Zagreb and the Medical Officer School in Belgrade. As an illustrator, he worked for the magazine 'Hrvatski vojnik' (Croatian soldier) of the Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Croatia, and then for military history magazines in Germany, France, Spain and The Netherlands. He co-authored three books: 'The History of Cavalry' and 'Cavalry' , both with V. Vuksic; and 'Hrvati, slike iz ratnicke proslosti' (Croats, the pictures from the warriors' history) with Mazuran, Radilovic, Trnski, Vuksic. 28 colour and 8 b/w illustrations, 7 colour maps These elite warriors, both the knights and the lowlier ranks, are illustrated with the author's beautiful original paintings and drawings.

Has an Epilogue and an Index. Velimir Vuksic is a talented and experienced military illustrator, whose range covers a wide variety of periods and armies. He has worked for numerous publications over the years, including Military Illustrated. A native of Croatia, Velimir has also served in the armed forces, as a paratrooper. Velimir has also worked at the Belgrade Military Museum, gaining him full access to the archives there. This book describes the history of the soldier on horseback, from the early horse archers of the Middle East to the Italian mounted crossbowmen of the fifteenth century, and from the sixteenth-century Muscovite boyars to the 7th U.S. Cavalry. An introductory account of the development of cavalry covers the history of its organization and tactics in different forces throughout the world, illustrated with 31 line drawings. Over 100 superb color plates specially commissioned for this book accurately depict representative cavalrymen whose actions shaped the political and military history of their day. Every picture is accompanied by a caption giving concise information about that particular type of cavalry--its history, tactics, and battles, as well as details of dress,weapons, and armor. For centuries the possession of weapons and a horse was a sign of nobility. From the relationship between warrior, hors, and weapons grew the ideal of knighthood and the romantic image of the dashing cavalryman. Behind this familiar myth, however, lies a hard-edged reality. Cavalry were the shock troops of ancient and medieval warfare==a warrior on a horseback was, in general, more powerful, better armed and more maneuverable than a soldier on the ground. The possession of arms and a charger ensured the cavalryman his status, while the possession of cavalry ensured a ruler both spectacle and power. Presumed First U. K. Edition, First printing.

Rustica (tapa blanda). Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: Nuevo. Grba?i?, Zvonimir (illustrator). 01. La Orden del Temple es probablemente la organización de carácter religioso y militar más relevante de toda la Edad Media. Nacidos al calor del fenómeno histórico de las cruzadas, con el fin primero de proteger a los peregrinos cristianos que viajaban a Tierra Santa, los caballeros templarios protagonizaron casi dos siglos de apasionante historia. El polifacético ilustrador e investigador croata Zvonimir Grbasic, colaborador de las cabeceras de Desperta Ferro Historia Moderna y Desperta Ferro Contemporánea, nos ofrece esta nueva historia de la Orden del Temple, desde los días previos a la Primera Cruzada hasta su disolución, haciendo hincapié en su faceta militar, pero sin dejar de lado todos los aspectos de su organización, funcionamiento o mentalidad. El gran aporte de esta obra son las numerosas y magníficas ilustraciones que el propio. Grbasic ha realizado para la ocasión, y que consiguen evocar la vida y los hechos de armas de estos soldados de Dios: la carga contra los jinetes de Saladino en Montgisard, los últimos supervivientes de la masacre de los Cuernos de Hattin, la desesperada resistencia en Acre Unas imágenes que convierten a Templarios. Soldados de Dios en toda una joya para los amantes de la historia medieval, que flamea como antaño el estandarte blanco y negro del Temple: Beauséant! por Heródoto, el padre de la historia. LIBRO.
