Kings of the Grail: Discovering the True Location of the Cup of Christ in Modern-Day Spain - Hardcover
Synopsis
Recently discovered parchments in the Egyptian University of Al-Azhar have finally made it possible to identify the location where the Holy Grail has been kept for the last 1,000 years. Their discovery led Margarita Torres Sevilla and José Miguel Ortega del Río on a three-year investigation as they traced the Grail’s journey across the globe and discovered its final resting place in the Basilica of San Isidoro in León, Spain. Translated by Rosie Marteau, this is the definitive guide to one of history’s most sought-after treasures, the origin and object of both Arthurian myth and Christian legend, offering meticulously researched information to support an extraordinary discovery. Kings of the Grail presents the new, definitive historical and scientific facts that have come to light, unravelling the mystery that has surrounded the Holy Grail and taking the reader on a compelling and thought-provoking journey back through time.

Review
“Carefully detailing the life of the Grail, beginning with the early Christian church in Jerusalem, where it resided for about 400 years, to its journey to Arabia to the Emir of Denia, where the Emir used the Grail to try to buy friendship with Ferdinand I of Spain, to its final resting place in Leon, the writers make a convincing case . . . This book is a fascinating look at a mystery which has caught the Western imagination via books, poems and movies.”
