As a former professor at the esteemed University of Cambridge, specializing in history bloodlines and ancestors, I have had the pleasure of delving into numerous historical narratives, each presenting its own unique insights into the annals of time. Among these, “The Rebirth of the Knights Templar, From Jerusalem to America” stands out as a meticulous and captivating exploration of the enduring legacy of one of history’s most enigmatic orders.

Nichols, themselves descendants of illustrious royal families and Knights Templar, this book is an opus of meticulous genealogical research intertwined with the rich tapestry of history. From its inception in 1119 with the noble mission of safeguarding pilgrims and the Holy Land, to its persecution and suppression by the Pope and the King of France in 1307, the narrative vividly portrays the trials and triumphs of the Knights Templar.

Through meticulous documentation, the authors trace their escape to various corners of the globe, including Scotland, Portugal, Spain, and beyond, shedding light on their enduring influence on pivotal historical events such as the Scottish Wars of Independence, the Hundred Years’ War, and the Reformation.

Of particular intrigue is the authors’ exploration of the Knights Templar’s purported involvement in the New World. By weaving together historical evidence and compelling anecdotes, they paint a compelling picture of the Templars’ role in shaping the course of events in America, from the establishment of colonies to their influence on the Founding Fathers during the American Revolution.
Furthermore, John and Myra delve into the esoteric realm, unveiling the hidden symbols, secrets, and treasures purportedly left behind by the Knights Templar, scattered across the landscape of the modern world. From the Washington Monument to the Statue of Liberty, the authors skillfully navigate through layers of mystery, inviting readers on a journey of discovery that transcends mere historical inquiry.
