SEVERAL "NEW" AUTHORS WITH "MORE OF THE STORY"!!, April 24, 2006
The compiler of this book has to be commended for finding scholars with "more of the story"!! I was fascinated with the story of the "Roussillon Templars" as we have several of those ancestors including Alaric the Goth who brought the temple treasures of Jerusalem out of Rome and into that Visigoth territory around Roussillon. Nice to know that more details wiped out by the Inquisitions in that area is finally seeing the LIGHT OF DAY!! Researching the families who were especially persecuted does seem to help! The detail on Henry of Blois and his crucial connections with Glastonbury and Winchester 'developments' is also fascinating. Thanks to Karen Ralls and this compiler for helping us put this history together again!!! Let us hope we won't have to deny another "holocaust" again and can move forward in life respecting all peoples.
