The Quest for the Celtic Key


The Quest for the Celtic Key. Who were the Picts ? The Druids ? The Culdees and Celtic saints ? What are Scotland's traditions about King Arthur, Merlin and the Holy Grail ? Is there a link between America's Declaration of Independence and Scotland's Declaration of Arbroath ? Did Prince Henry Sinclair sail to North America before Columbus ? Why does Rosslyn Chapel attract so many prominent Freemasons, Knights templar and Rosicrucians, and why was its famed Apprentice carving altered ? History is a Quest, or journey, through time. Today, as never before, there is tremendous growing interest in the history of western philosophical and spiritual traditions. Since the beginning of devolution and the new Scottish Parliament, interest in Scotland is also growing tremendously. In this ground-breaking book, medieval religious historian and Celtic scholar Ralls and local Scottish historian Robertson describe the people, places, and traditions associated with Scotland's past. The result is a riveting read of historical detective work and a 'first' of its kind, seen by some as a real Scottish tour de force. The Quest for the Celtic Key (Quest for).
