The legend of King Arthur developed in the 12th century from the Celtic traditions of Wales and Armorica, the latter sources being known as the Matière de Bretagne. The fundamental text was published in 1155 by Geoffrey of Monmouth: The History of the Kings of Britain provided the true model for the Arthurian romances, with the appearance of Arthur, Guinevere, Merlin and the fairy Morgane. The legend of the Grail also developed at the same time. Here we shall discover the important role played by the seigneury of Dol-Combourg, situated in the Marches of Brittany.

The Holy Grail has become a popular field of study in recent years, however most books on the subject are written by authors who are not themselves initiated into the mystery school tradition of the Grail. Revelation of the Holy Grail is one of the first books on the subject which is written by an initiate within several of the Knighthood Orders associated with the Grail Tradition. This book provides many previously unpublished facts about the history and tradition of the Grail movement, which includes some of the most influential people in human history. The Quest of the Holy Grail has proved to really be about the quest for human civilization. It has spawned not only the greatest political movements in history, but also it has been the cornerstone of human technology. Alchemy, Hebrew Mysteries, Templar Secrets, ancient technologies, Gnostic traditions, and secret societies have all been involved in this exciting history which is the backbone of our modern day world.

The noted author of From Ritual to Romance describes and analyzes the literature of the Grail cycle and surveys the leading theories about the origins and meaning of the legend. Her conclusion is that the Grail story is a confused and fragmentary record of a special form of nature worship, which, elevated to the dignity of a mystery, survived as a tradition. Appendix.
