Summary: Editor's Comments
Review: As a student of Grail mysteries, I was excited to work with William Mann on this project. As an editor I was challenged with the large volume of information that the author presented and delighted with the outcome of the final work. This is not a book for the casual reader, but a work to be used for searching out the hidden meanings in well know grail mythologies. It is well worth reading and an excellent addition to any Grail research library.

Summary: An insightful work!
Review: I enjoyed the way the author lead me to the possible conclusion that the Knights Templars really came to the New World. It is truly a labyrinth of information, and like all labyrinths, only the dedicated seeker will find the way through to the center of the maze.

Summary: A different look at Templar Mysteries
Review: I've read many books on the Knights Templar and nowhere have I found a more in-depth and esoteric treatise on the hidden aspect of their philosophy. I recommend this book to researchers of the Grail Mystery as well as mystery fans!

Summary: A Grail Mystery revealed.
Review: The link between the Knights Templars, Freemasonry, and the descendants of the House of David have always intrigued readers and searchers for the truth behind the Grail mysteries. What these truths might be is the basic premise of Canadian author William F. Mann's book, The Labyrinth of the Grail.

Combining close studies of Freemasonry and Templar history with Grail legends, classical mythology and sacred geometry, William Mann has collected evidence that, among other topics, verifies the significance of Prince Henry Sinclair's epic voyage in 1399 from Orkney to the New World.

Using his acute skills of observation, the author has assimilated hidden clues that point to a revelation that could shake the very foundations of the established Church, the true nature of the Holy Grail, the Holy Bloodline and the Knights Templar in Nova Scotia.

From the secret revealed to him by his uncle, a Grand Master of the Knights Templar of Canada, to his discovery of what he believes to be evidence of a Templar settlement in Nova Scotia, William Mann gives searchers the keys to unlock these mysteries.

A well researched book with over 50 illustrations, paintings and photographs, reference notes and bibliography, The Labyrinth Of The Grail is the definitive reference book for students of the New World Grail mysteries.

Summary: A good reference book
Review: This book is a labyrinth of information. I would not recommend this book to someone new to the subject of the search for the grail. The author assumes that the reader has already read Holy Blood, Holy Grail AND Holy Grail Across the Atlantic. The author spends most of the book analyzing Poussin's painting and the hidden geometric clues within. It gets way out there at times, but is an interesting theory. He, like Michael Bradley believes that the grail was brought to Nova Scotia by the knights templar and the main clues to the location are hidden within the painting. There are other clues throughout the Nova Scotia landscape and the Minas Basin, the location of the worlds highest tides. The Prince Henry Sinclair/Glooscap connection is mentioned as well as King Arthur and Dagobert. You can get lost easily if not paying attention but the footnotes are quite extensive and quite interesting. I must say I didn't enjoy this book as much as the other two I mentioned, but it did provide some interesting theories.

Summary: Nonsense
Review: This is just a lot of speculation thrown together with no real conclusion. Many of references are incorrect or modified to try to fit them into the ideas of the author. I would not recommend this book.
