Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Following the Crusades, the tales of military orders were romanticized and resulted in the creation of Chivalric Orders. Chivalry and its rankings are a direct imitation of recapturing the tales of knighthood of the Crusades.
This book looks specifically at the early monarchial orders of chivalry and how each rank was determined.
