coverCompassesHot on the heels of the Portuguese language edition of Nobly Born is the release of the Portuguese language edition of Compasses and the Cross, the second in my trilogy of illustrated histories for Lewis Masonic.

O Compasso e a Cruz is, like Nascidos em Berço Nobre, published by Madras Editorio of Brazil. Again they have done a beautiful job of the cover art.

For some reason I don’t recall that this one was on the line to be translated, but happy that it is available.

pcoverI was pretty pleased to find a package waiting for me in my mail box today – doubly pleased that it contained four copiers of the Portuguese language edition of Nobly Born.

Nascidos em Berço Nobre is published by Madras of Brazil and takes my 8 X 10 coffee table-style book published by Lewis Masonic in 2007 and reworks it into a 320-page, handsome 6X9 trade paperback.

Can’t read it, but I couldn’t be more pleased with the job they did on the book.

wb2About The Book

In The Warriors and the Bankers, the research and writing team of Alan Butler and Stephen Dafoe bring their combined experiences to bear on the question asked for hundreds of years, What became of the Knights Templar?

Arrested in 1307, dissolved in 1312 and executed by 1314, the Templars have been the subject of many theories concerning their possible survival.

This book examines these theories against new evidence and information.

Additionally the authors put forth, for the first time, a completely NEW theory that has caught the ears, eyes and attention of many readers.

The ultimate conclusion is that the Templars did survive, virtually intact and that in a very direct sense, they may still be one of the most potent forces at work in the world at the start of the new Millennium.

The Warriors and the Bankers is eminently readable and is intended for both the serious student of Templarism or simply the interested observer.
