ReviewsOnly rarely do you find a book which could change the way we look at our history: this is one of those books. . . . The Lost Colony of the Templars deserves a place of honor on your shelves., Steven Sora has once again confirmed his position as one of only a handful having the 'ability to see' the signs along the path of the Knights Templar in America. This book is a fascinating blend of innovative theories based on historical fact that will appeal to any reader who quests for understanding of the Holy Bloodline., . . . this book, which covers an immense range of topics, is really about one thing: a basic change in the nature of human consciousness., Further revelations about the Vikings, Templars, Sinclairs, old European families, secret societies and long-time mysteries make Sora's book an absorbing read.

SynopsisReveals the existence of a Templar colony in the New World and how the explorer Verrazano, also a member of a secret society, attempted to reestablish contact with it * Explores Columbus's connection to Henry Sinclair's maps of the New World * Examines the secret alliance of Catholic Sulpicians and French Huguenots to preserve the Templar legacy * Reveals the hidden knowledge preserved in the Templar baptisteries found throughout Europe and in Newport, Rhode Island In 1524 the Italian explorer Giovanni da Verrazano was sent by the French king Francis I on an expedition ostensibly to find a shorter route to China. However, his true mission, Steven Sora suggests, was to contact a Templar colony that might have been established in Newport, Rhode Island, by Henry Sinclair at the end of the 14th century. In his expedition log Verrazano recorded that his only stay on this journey was at Newport Harbor, the site of a tower built to the exact measurements of a Templar baptistery, a sacred sanctuary representing baptism and eternal life. This tower is a remnant of Sinclair's voyage to America nearly a century before that of Columbus (who had access to Sinclair's maps thanks to his wife, who was Sinclair's great-granddaughter). While Verrazano's mission succeeded in finding the tower, the colony itself eluded him. His backers then decided to resurrect the dream of Acadia--a place where they could aspire to higher knowledge without fear of Church or state--by creating a new Secret Society that included Huguenots and Catholic Sulpicians. This Company of the Holy Sacrament would lay the foundations for Montreal in an attempt to realize the ambitions of Sinclair and his Templar companions, as well as to stave off efforts by the Jesuits to transform Quebec into a fiefdom of the orthodox Church. Quebec's motto, "Je me souviens" (I remember), is a reference to this secret history., Reveals the existence of a Templar colony in the New World and how the explorer Verrazano, also a member of a secret society, attempted to reestablish contact with it - Explores Columbus's connection to Henry Sinclair's maps of the New World - Examines the secret alliance of Catholic Sulpicians and French Huguenots to preserve the Templar legacy - Reveals the hidden knowledge preserved in the Templar baptisteries found throughout Europe and in Newport, Rhode Island In 1524 the Italian explorer Giovanni da Verrazano was sent by the French king Francis I on an expedition ostensibly to find a shorter route to China.

Very interesting book , covering a large amount of history and touching on many compelling historic theories and regigious impossed struggles
This is a easy read and hard to put down book , this book weaves a well written series of stories , of early exploration and European struggles and a quest for religious freedom that tells of history as can best be related , from stories pasted down , with a very high degree of accuracy , but as in all history , some things can be askew a little in retelling or in our current understanding , in 15th century Europe , their were many things hidden out of fear from scorn from the Roman church and , for instance , its very likely that Chris Colon was Spanish and Jewish , but hid this from the Church for fear of reprisal , and this theory is touched upon , but more told as he being a Italian sailing for SpainBestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
