Windswept House
Author: Malachi Martin
Publisher: Main Street Books
ISBN: 0385492316
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 658
Book Description
The Cold War has ended. With a scope and daring not possible until now, an unlikely international alliance of top-level political, financial, and religious interests sees the way clear at last to its ultimate goal: the establishment of a single global society. Utopia. These are men with nothing in common but immense power and a towering ambition for still more. With world unity and prosperity as their slogan--and with betrayal, scandal, and murder as their ready weapons--they have the means and the will to capture as their own the perfect global machinery for their plans: the oldest, wiliest, and most stable political chancery in the world--the Vatican. At the vortex of this lethal struggle stands the embattled Pope, a geopolitical genius whose elimination is the short-term solution to a long-term goal, and two American brothers, Paul and Christian Gladstone, one a lawyer and the other a priest, who appear to be the perfect pawns. One falls prey to the sharp teeth of greed for power. The other will become one of the Slavic Pontiff's closest allies...and will discover the darkest secrets at the very heart of papal Rome. From America to Europe to Russia, in broad landscapes and clandestine corridors, a rich and varied cast--presidents and politicos, simple saints and savvy sinners, popes and pope-makers--clash with one another amid dramatic and sometimes bloody events that will affect the destiny of every person alive today.

A Templar Monitor
Author: George Connor
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781947907140
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 310
Book Description
This book faithfully reproduces a handwritten book discovered in the archives of a Masonic Templar Commandery in Tennessee. Written in 1882 by George Cooper Connor, then Grand Commander of the Grand Commandery of Tennessee, it was an attempt too put together a definitive set of rituals for the three Masonic Templar Orders, being the Order of the Red Cross, the Order of Malta and the Order of the Temple. Although the Grand Encampment had already existed for over a century, the rituals had still not been finalized and imposed on the Grand Commanderies.Drawing from English, Scottish, Irish and Canadian Rituals, Connor assembled a series of rituals using 'best of breed' from the other existing rituals. He ran them past a number of luminaries of the time, including McLeod Moore of Canada, obtaining both their approbation and admiration for his work. Unfortunately the work was not adopted by Grand Encampment, and we learn something of the political machinations which led to this fact. Three years later Grand Encampment came out with their own definitive rituals, and the work of Connor was relegated to history.The notebook is handwritten in beautiful script, and lavishly illustrated with line drawing which were hand-colored by watercolors. The pages were professionally scanned by the Chancellor Livingston Masonic Library in Manhattan, NY, and then transcribed by Piers A. Vaughan. The book is laid out with a facsimile of the original page on one side and the modern transliteration on the other, which has been supplemented by original artwork by Steven Adams. The tome contains a number of explanatory articles and also notes of the funeral of Connor, which also tells us that his reputation extended as far as the United Kingdom, where his demise was regretted by many senior Freemasons. The cover simulates the original cover, which is in dark faded leather, with wording tooled in gold leaf.
