4.0 out of 5 stars
A thought-provoking documentary about the Templar legacy., November 24, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Shadow of the Templars [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Henry Lincoln and others explore the mysterious history of the Knights Templar, a sect of warrior monks who discovered a most compelling secret during their quests to the Holy Land and preserved that secret through ritual and symbology.
Originally a BBC documentary, this program formed the basis for Holy Blood, Holy Grail-- a book Lincoln co-authored with fellow BBC researchers Michael Baigent and Richard Leigh-- which traces the Templar legacy through to modern times.
This program is well worth watching if you are interested in the history of secret societies, medieval folklore, or the Crusades. It also paints an interesting panorama of Southern France and the beauty-- and mystery-- that permeates the landscape.

A thought provoking look at a hidden history, May 23, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Shadow of the Templars [VHS] (VHS Tape)
I have seen Shadows of the Templars and was impressed, but there were other videos released by H.Lincoln and the BBC that expounded on ancient geometry and Earth land marks that link old Templar monastaries to Jerusalem. I would like to own these videos if possible. Saw them on A&E channel.
