Henry St. Clair of the Orkney Islands, then part of Normandy, and Carlo Zeno, a Venetian trader, made peaceful and mutually beneficial contact with the Mi'qmaq people of what is now Canada. Proof of their travels is carved in stone on both sides of the Atlantic and can be found in documentary evidence borne out by a strong oral tradition that has withstood the test of time. Historians Tim Wallace-Murphy and Marilyn Hopkins demonstrate how this early contact with the Americas ties into the centuries-long development of the Templars and Freemasonry, which in turn shaped the thinking of the Founding Fathers--and the American Constitution. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Wallace-Murphy and Hopkins also reveal the continuous history of American exploration from the time of ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome, through the age of the Vikings. \u003ci\u003eTemplars in America \u003c\/i\u003eis a wild ride from the golden age of exploration to the founding of the United States.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTim Wallace-Murphy \u003c\/b\u003e(1930-2019) studied medicine at University College, Dublin, and then qualified as a psychologist; he then became an author, lecturer, and historian.
