Most articles in this work cover military orders in the 12th and 13th centuries. Some are studies of the history of particular orders. The majority, however, are broader in scope, discussing the development, organization and activities of the military orders up to the early 14th century.

This comprehensive survey of the military orders is based on a wide range of primary sources. Besides giving a clear account of the emergence of the orders, it investigates their military significance and the ways in which they obtained necessary funds and manpower.
