The Forgotten Monarchy of Scotland.
The Forgotten Monarchy of Scotland. The True Story of the Royal House of Stewart and the Hidden Lineage of the Kings and Queens of Scotland. By HRH Prince Michael of Albany, Head of the Royal House of Stewart. (Michael James Alexander Stewart). Published by: Element Books Ltd. £16.99. ISBN: 1-86204-234-9.
PRELIMINARY PREVIEW
This is bound to be a controversial book as it attempts to establish that the author is, in fact, the legitimate descendant of Charles Edward Stewart (Bonnie Prince Charlie). The research, over many years, which has produced this work, is obvious. The author discusses the nature of the Scottish Nation, it's history and it's future in an authoritative manner.
The central questions as to whether or not he is the legitimate heir to the Scottish Crown touches on political and religious matters that fall outside the realm of Masonic comment.
The interest in the contents of this book for Freemasons in general, and Scottish Freemasons in particular, lies in the discussion of the origins of Freemasonry, the Knights Templar, and present day manifestations of the latter.
