5.0 out of 5 stars manipulating religion Feb 19 2013
By Bourgsmallworld
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
Well researched and presented. Captivating from cover to cover. I recommend it to anyone who cares to know what truly happened and how the ruling class manipulates history to its own advantage.

3.0 out of 5 stars Entertaining to the last, factual,not in the least Jun 19 1998
By A Customer
Format:Mass Market Paperback
This is a great book. One hell of an entertaining yarn. But that's all it is. If you like these historic religious quest books, you will eat it this up. However, Baigent and Leigh (I will leave Lincoln out of this critcism) have proven themselves, to knowledgible scholars, unwilling to back up their statements with historical facts. Even a layman can easily poke holes in most of their conclusions, provided one is willing to try. To back up this statement one need go no further than Baigent and Leigh's "The Dead Sea Scroll Deception". The thesis of this work is familar to readers of "Holy Blood, Holy Grail", namely conspiracy and cover up, However as another reviewer has stated, method is explaned, but not motive. This is a fun book to read, but it should never be considered as revisionist history. What it is , is a well written, fanciful yarn. I give it 5 stars for entertainment and 1 for its accuracy. Still if you like historical detective stories you will love this book. I couldn't put it down. Just don't believe all you read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fascinating Jan 26 2004
By Aumakua
Format:Hardcover
Some people may say this is just a blind conspiracy theory and perhaps even be offended by it. The authors even admit where they are speculating and call it their hypothesis. Unlike the normal Christian histories imposed upon us as absolute truth, these authors open the door for our thoughts and interpretations. As for the medieval historian, I wish that person would have at least told us a bit about "what a Merovingian is". The historian gives us nothing of what the correct version might be anymore than why the book is wrong. I absolutely love history and if these authors are wrong, I would love at least a new direction to get facts that are perhaps more accurate. I did look up other alternative sources on the Merovingians and find nothing to prove or disprove what the book says. I am not sure if I believe this book total truth or not, but the Vatican itself has distorted and or denied access to information as well as the Holy Bible itself has never proved or disproved either, yet these versions are widely believed with so little evidence. This book is an awsome alternative to the mainstream history usually given. It requires an open mind and perhaps a bit of research by yourself. Think for yourselves and enjoy the book!

4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting to non bible thumpers
I guess if you believe everything written in the bible you shouldn't read this. However I don't believe everything in the bible so this book was interesting to me.

1.0 out of 5 stars Absolute nonsense
This book's claim to fame is the theory that Jesus did not die 2,000 years ago and is based on suppositions, myth and a twisted view of the scriptures. Read more

A very exciting and wonderful read. Very much a good representative example of conspiracy theories. It could be used as a text book case. Read more
