1 HOWARTH, STEPHEN. The Knights Templar: The Essential History.
The Continuum Publishing Company, New York: 2007. s Softcover. Brand new book. 
A classic account of one of the strangest phenomena of Medieval history: The Poor Fellow Soldiers of Christ, the Knights of The Temple of Solomon - more popularly known as The Knights Templar. In their brotherhood, the Knights united two conflicting medieval ideals, for they were both monks and warriors, committed to God and committed to war. In the strict hierarchy of the feudal world, where every man obeyed no-one except the Pope. They were bankers, merchants, diplomats and though themselves poor, the wealth of their order was legendary. They led the Crusades against the Moslem States of the East, yet when their order was destroyed in 1314, its enemies were not Muslims but Christians. Individually and as a group they were accused of heresy, treachery, sodomy, usury, blasphemy, idolatry and a number of unspeakable sins. Charting the rise and fall of the Order, tracing the lives and deaths of its members, examining the motives of its supporters and opponents, Stephen Howarth cuts through the myths and legends and setes out the true historical facts.

2 HOWARTH, STEPHEN. To Shining Sea: A History Of The United States Navy, 1775-1998.
University of Oklahoma Press, Norman: 1999. s Softcover. Brand new book. 
To Shining Sea is a landmark work of naval history - the most comprehensive and authoritative narrative account of American sea power written in recent times. From John Paul Jones's defiant cry "I have not yet begun to fight," to the war in the Persian Gulf, Stephen Howarth chronicles the epic story of the United States Navy. Here are the first engagements of the tiny Continental Navy, the fight against the Barbary pirates, the watershed clash of the Monitor and the Merrimack, the development - from blueprint to battleship - of the U.S. Navy's first modern capital ships and submarines, the great battles of World War II in the Pacific, and the navy's deployment in Vietnam and in the Persian Gulf. For this edition, Howarth provides a new afterword discussing recent developments in the U.S. Navy. "Howarth's vivid description of combat action and his word portraits of leading figures enliven a work that is fully as serious and informative as Hagan's [This People's Navy]. . . . A rattling good tale."- Robert W. Love, Jr., Journal of American History
