Holy Blood & the Holy Grailby Michael Baigent
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:The enigma: a discovery at Rennes-le-Château that offers little in the way of material wealth, but whose secret rocked the foundations of contemporary politics and the Christian faith. The players: the Knights Templar, the Cathar heretics of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries and a dynasty of obscure French kings deposed more than 1,300 years ago. The conclusion: as persuasive, controversial and explosive as it was when first published over twenty years ago.
Synopsis:A 19th-century French priest's discovery develops into an historical detective story which radiates out from a small Pyrenean village to encompass the whole of western civilization, with repercussions which stretch all the way to contemporary politics and the entire edifice of Christian faith.
Synopsis:Revised and updated edition of this book that sparked off a storm of controversy when it was first published in 1983. It is a story that changed from the search for a nineteenth century French priest's discovery in the Pyrenees to a modern day quest for the Holy Grail.
