About this ebook

Occasonally, a tale comes along that has been lost in the mists of time. Often the story starts out as just another mundane event in daily life until something else comes out from behind the shadows. And when it does, nobody can escape the fire storm that follows, especially when the masked one demands so much of our attention. Because in the end, the consequences of his actions eventually consume all of those in its path. William McBride was such a person in the early 14th century, when he came in contact with the Logan brothers of Lanark, who were also known to the locals as the Gemini Knights. These brothers were Templar Knights of the Scottish Order and they carried out a number dangerous exploits in their time. And as William McBride found out in later life, the times he spent with the brothers would eventually place him on a path that could have a profound impact on the City of Jerusalem at the end time. To some, this story may appear to be just another old wives tale, worthy of a good read and then placed on the book shelve to gather dust from now on. However, to others the story of the Gemini Knights has more than just a ring of truth to it in some kind of old fashioned way. Enough, to engage the mind in more than a simple observation of the material that William McBride collected over his life time.So, if you have an inquisitive mind and want to gain a glimpse into the future, the only question you have to ask yourself is. 'Do I have the courage to read the book and judge for myself?'

About the author

The author spent many of his working years as a lecturer at Curtin University in Perth Western Australia.During this time he researched many stories of his Scottish ancestory, from the 12th to the 17th centuries. And one that gained his particular interest, centered around the Logan brothers of Lanark who were also known as the Gemini Knights to locals of the region. The Logan brothers were indeed real Templar Knights belonging to the Scottish Order in the earlier 14th century. The author's aim in this book is to acquaint the reader with the brother's exploits at the time and tell a part of history that has not been told before. An interesting one that may spark others to come forward with their own stories of that fascinating period, so long ago in medieval Britain.
