Get your calendars out and put down these dates for Robert Hirsch events! Author of Contrition, Promise of the Black Monks, and Hammer of God, Hirsch takes you back to the Crusades and immerses you in the lives of the de Saint Germain brothers…
That the most cataclysmic events in history are often engineered by men of decent heart in the name of righteousness is a bloody testament to both the blinding power of misguided conviction and the ignorance of the masses. Such was the wellspring of the Crusades, a murderous rampage of hatred and intolerance that bared its ugly fangs at the end of the 11th Century, and whose venom lingers within us to this very day.
