Item description from seller

Description: A few black and white illustrations, plus a section of plates, with some in color. From the publisher's blurb: ''It was a dangerous matter to be a dissenter from the orthodox Christian Church in medieval times. To be branded a heretic invited torture and execution. Courageous and steadfast dissenters included the Knights Templar, the Freemasons, the Cathars and scientists of the day. Their avowed intention was to safeguard the truth about Jesus Christ and his ministry, which, they believed, was revealed in early scriptures and had been rejected and suppressed. They devised an ingenious and complex secret code for communicating with others of like mind and to preserve the truth for future generations. This code was concealed in symbols which were hidden in the art and artifacts of the medieval world.'' BINDNG/CONDITION: red binding with gilt spine text; a Very Good book, with a Very Good dust jacket; publisher's price on the jacket flap is intact. source notes, bibliography, index. Green endpapers. 8vo (9.5 inches tall). 309 pages. …
