After reading this book, one will never look at dragons in the same way again.From before 35,000 BC in northern Eurasia, an astonomical and philosophical culture, called the dragon-culture by the author, was transmitted to our present time. This book traces that culture, part of the polar constellation Draconis, through Mesopotamia, Egypt, the Balkans, Languedoc, the Military Orders [including The Order of the Dragon], the Freemasons and into the present. It is based on academic and scientific sources, and is the first complete and professional history of the culture that created modern civilization.
