This book started out as an investigation into the origins of the Megalithic system of measurements we had uncovered in Civilization One. We happened across some of Britain's oldest structures - henges, that predate the earliest Egyptian pyramids by 1,000 years, making them amongst the oldest ritual structures ever created by man. It turns out that the giant henges of Britain are actually sophisticated solar and stellar observatories, but one set of them is very much more. The giant henge array of Thornborough in England is an 'exact' copy of the three stars of Orion's Belt. We knew that people had said the same thing about the three major pyramids of the Giza Plateau in Egypt and when we measured these carefully only one conclusion was possible. The plan for the Great Pyramid and its companions must have been laid down in far off Britain. But then came the greatest surprise of all. We came to realise that the ancient measuring system, that had supposedly disappeared around 1700 BC had been used only a couple of hundred years ago, in the city of Bath in England. We cast around to find other examples and that's when we hit the jackpot - not in Britain, but across the Atlantic - in Washington DC? An investigation began and the results proved to be incredible. This book is a compulsive read and offers the best evidence imaginable of a surviving fraternity that not only perpetuates its own beleifs but is, in reality, the most influential and the most secret organisation in the world.
