Inhaltsangabe:

The Knights Templars and The Key of Solomon the King are two separate texts, containing secrets of speculative matters, which have fueled many modern conspiracies with tendrils reaching from the Vatican to the Founding Fathers.

 

THE KNIGHTS TEMPLARS

Rising from an original band of nine pious warriors to an army of Christian knights 15,000 strong, these holy warriors wielded power both on the battlefields of Palestine and in the courts of Europe throughout the Middle Ages, and beyond until political forces forced them underground into a secret society whose reach has extended across oceans and whose influence continues, though in secret, throughout the modern era.

THE KEY OF SOLOMON THE KING
The most famous grimoire of Western civilization as translated and edited by MacGregor Mathers, founder of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn.  "The Key" is the seminal text of the studies of Solomon the King whose angelic and divine tutor imparted unto him not just the wisdom of the ages of man on earth, but other matters of arcana of an otherworldly nature.

Together these texts provide insight into many of today's most widely speculated upon conspiracies and literary puzzle thrillers as well.
