What ancient mystery lies behind the creation of Freemasonry- a lost secret so powerful that the Brotherhood itself has been on a quest to find it for three hundred years? For those of us lacking the resources to excavate occult secrets hidden beneath the Louvre or the Rosslyn Chapel, or within CIA Headquarters, The Shadow of Solomon is the next best thing. These pages reveal the true secrets of Solomon, from masonry to magic. Laurence Gardner's personal experience as both a Templar and a mason makes this fascinating journey through the history of the Bible, Knights Templar, Freemasons, and everything that followed all the more striking and immediate. Is it an accident that the world's attention should be turned to these men and their strange lexicon of symbols and secrets RIGHT NOW? What will happen when we understand that there is something we all have in common that is greater than nation or religion? Freemasons are often said to be the world's most influential secret society, yet the story of this enigmatic fraternity is wrapped in mystery and intrigue. Their involvement in shaping political world events has stretched over centuries, even to the extent that masonic principles lie beneath the establishment of the United States and its Constitution. The Shadow of Solomon is the definitive insider's account of the startling truth behind masonic history and the centuries-long search that the fraternity has undertaken to find its own lost secrets.

When his mother became President, Alex Claremont-Diaz was promptly cast as the American equivalent of a young royal. Handsome, charismatic, genius—his image is pure millennial-marketing gold for the White House. There's only one problem: Alex has a beef with the actual prince, Henry, across the pond. And when the tabloids get hold of a photo involving an Alex-Henry altercation, U.S./British relations take a turn for the worse. Heads of family, state, and other handlers devise a plan for damage control: staging a truce between the two rivals. What at first begins as a fake, Instragramable friendship grows deeper, and more dangerous, than either Alex or Henry could have imagined. Soon Alex finds himself hurtling into a secret romance with a surprisingly unstuffy Henry that could derail the campaign and upend two nations and begs the question: Can love save the world after all? Where do we find the courage, and the power, to be the people we are meant to be? And how can we learn to let our true colors shine through?

In the light of the recent tragedy that has changed our world, David Ovason, the foremost expert on the prophecies of Michel Nostradamus, has reexamined the writings of the 16th Century French seer. What Ovason discovered was startling: a quatrain that specifically predicts the horrific terrorist attack on New York City that killed more people in one day than died in America's three-year War of Independence. In this bold new interpretation of Nostradamus's prescient texts, Ovason reveals with reasoned, intelligent scholarship what the Master presaged for the United States-a nation that did not exist in Nostradamus's time-including the shocking foretelling of a devastating fire to approach a great new city”…and the coming of a new age of prosperity for us all. Renowned scholar David Ovason also reveals how Western history's most remarkable clairvoyant predicted the most momentous events in the development of the United States, including: The settlement of Jamestown The Declaration of Independence The founding of St. Louis The development of electricity The invention of manned flight The Apollo space program AND The terrorist attack on America and the destruction of the World Trade Center
