Title
The Crusades, the Templars and Freemasonry: A historical saga, of wealth, power, betrayal and faith. - Paperback
by Rosaldo Bonnet (Author)
Europe and Christianity were at serious risk from the advance of the Muslims. The Catholic Church knew that for its strengthening in the old continent, it also depended on preventing the progress of the Arabs in the region. The Byzantine Empire, on the other hand, cornered by the Islamists, saw its domains gradually shrink, and if nothing was done, it would be a question of time before they fell under Muslim domination. And from this context, a call for help, a call for faith and an unprecedented mobilisation was the starting point for the Crusades. However, behind it all, many secrets, betrayals and hidden interests were disguised in the retaking of the Holy Land . This was the backdrop of Europe and the Middle East in the early 11th century, and after a vibrant speech, Urban II, in Clermont in France, sets out on a journey to reconquer Jerusalem and its holy sites. And in this scenario, the story develops from the first Crusade, evolving to the other crusades, to the creation of the Order of the Temple and its collapse, and finally to the building sites of the great cathedrals and operative freemasonry. A historical saga of wars, betrayals, dreams, wealth and power, involving the Church, the nobility, the Knights Templar and the Freemasons. In an exciting account of the period, with wealth of detail, and great revelations! The book narrates one of the bloodiest and troubled periods of the western world
