Publisher's Synopsis

An extraordinary investigation, beginning with ancient parchments in Egypt and ending in Spain, casts an entirely new light on the fascinating mystery of the Holy Grail.

Recently discovered parchments in Egypt have finally made it possible to identify the current location of the Holy Grail. This extraordinary discovery led Margarita Torres Sevilla and José Miguel Ortega del Rìo on a three-year investigation as they traced the Grail's journey across the globe to its final resting place in the Basilica of San Isidoro in León, Spain.

* Traces the history of the Grail from Jerusalem in the eleventh century, to the caliph of the Fatimid dynasty, the Muslim prince of Dénia (in Spain) and finally to Ferdinand I of León and Castile.
* This definitive book on one of history's most sought-after treasures, the object of both Arthurian myth and Christian legend, has made headlines worldwide.
* The culmination of a meticulous three-year investigation and supported by historical and scientific research.
* Includes fascinating facts about the history of Judaism and early Christianity, the significance of the Last Supper, and the other cups previously identified as the Holy Grail.

Meticulously researched, this is a fascinating and unique guide to history of the Grail.
