Holy Blood, Holy Grail: The Secret History of Jesus, the Shocking Legacy of the Grail Book

Michael Baigent, Henry Lincoln, and Richard Leigh, authors of The Messianic Legacy, spent over 10 years on their own kind of quest for the Holy Grail, into the secretive history of early France. What they found, researched with the tenacity and attention to detail that befits any great quest, is a tangled and intricate story of politics and faith that reads like a mystery novel. It is the story of the Knights Templar, and a behind-the-scenes society called the Prieure de Sion, and its involvement in reinstating descendants of the Merovingian bloodline into political power. Why? The authors of Holy Blood, Holy Grail assert that their explorations into early history ultimately reveal that Jesus may not have died on the cross, but lived to marry and father children whose bloodline continues today. The authors' point here is not to compromise or to demean Jesus, but to offer another, more complete perspective of Jesus as God's incarnation in man. The power of this secret, which has been carefully guarded for hundreds of years, has sparked much controversy. For all the sensationalism and hoopla surrounding Holy Blood, Holy Grail and the alternate history that it outlines, the authors are careful to keep their perspective and sense of skepticism alive in its pages, explaining carefully and clearly how they came to draw such combustible conclusions. --Jodie BullerRead More

    SPECIAL ILLUSTRATED EDITION WITH EXCLUSIVE NEW MATERIAL

    “One of the more controversial books of the 20th century.” –UPI

    “Enough to seriously challenge many traditional beliefs, if not alter them.” –Los Angeles Book Times Review

    Explosive, thought-provoking, fiercely compelling, Holy Blood, Holy Grail breaks bold new ground with its shocking conclusions about the lineage of Christ and the legacy of the Holy Grail. Now this lavishly illustrated
    collector’s edition features exclusive new material plus dozens of full-color photographs, drawings, symbols, architecture, and artwork, making it a dazzling feast for the eyes as well as the mind. Based on decades
    of research, filled with eye-opening new
    evidence and stunning scholarship, this authoritative work uncovers an alternate history as shocking as it is believable–as it dares to ask:

    Is the traditional, accepted view of the life of Christ in some way incomplete?

    Is it possible Christ did not die on the
    cross?

    Is it possible Jesus was married, a father,
    and that his bloodline still exists?

    Is it possible that parchments found in the
    South of France a century ago reveal one
    of the best-kept secrets in Christendom?

    Is it possible that these parchments contain
    the very heart of the mystery of the Holy
    Grail?

    According to the authors of this extraordinarily provocative, meticulously researched book, not only are these things possible–they are probably true. So revolutionary, so original, so convincing, the most faithful Christians will be moved; here is the book that has sparked worldwide controversy, now newly updated and beautifully illustrated for the collector’s shelf.

    “Like Chariots of the Gods...The plot has all the elements of an international thriller.” –Newsweek
