It's no big surprise that what we learn in public schools & history books is full of lies, deceipt and falsehood. This is a great book that will Illuminate the authentic origins of the U.S.A and the real Spiritual Doctrines upon which christianity has tried for the last 1000 years or more, to hide from us. So, if you want the Real Deal, I highly recommend this reading for any serious seeker of hidden truth kept from the general population for too long.

The author presents an interest concept of his own family "discovering" America. The story gets a bit thin as he does not go into depth with the most important proofs, while he spends much more time creating a history of the Grail and the Templars. For the real story of Antonio and Nicolo Zeno story and the 1398 expedition there are better books to read. Sinclair somehow decided the Doge of Venice and the family Zeno should not have an "O" after their name. Once making this error - he sticks to it despite the fact that no one else has ever spelled it as ZEN. Leading this reader to wonder if a fact checker might have helped.

The author presents a history of the Grail and the Templars. Nice to read.

Uncritical, inaccurate, unreferenced and incredible - and that, believe me, is a flattering review compared with what I might have said. A combination of fantastic ignorance - of language, of literature and of history - combined with deliberate distortion makes for an acute attack of mental indigestion.

Buy it, read it, have a good laugh, donate it to Oxfam. That way it will at least do somebody some good, even if you end up in the funny farm, probably in the padded cell next door to the author's.

Andrew Sinclair's tedious and pompous book about the supposed discovery of America by his ancestors, the Sinclairs of the Orkney Islands, and his supposed discovery of the Holy Grail. is the closest thing to saying he has found the Lockness monster. This pseudo-scientific bunch of baloney never should have been published. God only knows why it was. If this is all Sinclair can produce these days, he should pack it in and take up checkers. Chess would be too challenging.
