Rosslyn Chapel and Castle near Edinburgh have long exerted a powerful magnetism and mystery for people all over the world. This enthralling new book follows the story of Rosslyn over two and a half millennia, exploring – and sometimes exploding – the many myths and misinterpretations that have grown up around this extraordinary place and offers astonishing insights that change the very history of Scotland.
In an astounding piece of historical research, Andrew Sinclair shows how the flamboyant Gothic chapel became a third Temple of Solomon for the Knights Templar and a Grail chapel, and how the Templars merged into the Freemasons to play an important role in both the French and American revolutions. The Lords of Rosslyn were also the defenders of the Bruce and Stewart kings by land and sea. Their dynasty, which lasted seven hundred years, flourished and fell with the freedom and fortunes of their country.
