This book is a record of an exploration of the links between The Green Man, the Templars, and Baphomet, with a journey to Santiago de Compostela. It's a journey through time and space spread over a couple of decades and founded in a mostly familiar world, a journey of a few thousand miles, a travelogue of sorts which became a Quest for signs and symbols and art rooted in an earlier time. Much of it was stimulated by the desire of man in the past to create a pattern, linking the material world to the spiritual one, a pattern created in another time which I found myself being drawn into. The quest for hidden meanings is a kind of treasure hunt, allied with the desire to be "in the know". It's a curiously human thing this need to uncover mysteries, and when it's attached to the exploration of foreign places the appeal increases.
