The Hidden Church of the Holy Graal

Set in the 13th century, the narrative explores the journey of early Christian survivors who establish a secret bloodline and safeguard relics tied to the crucifixion. A. E. Waite delves deep into Grail literature, tracing its origins from pagan folklore to a rich Christian allegory. The book critically examines various theories about the Grail's connections to groups like the Templars and Cathars, ultimately revealing an "inner church" within Christianity, represented by the mystical significance of the Last Supper's cup.
