Foreword by Robert E. Stone. The story of the Westford Knight, a mysterious, controversial stone carving in Massachusetts , is a mix of history, archaeology, sociology, and Knights Templar lore. Some believe it is an effigy of a 14th century knight, evidence of an early European visit to the New World by Henry Sinclair, the Earl of Orkney and Lord of Roslin. This work unravels the threads of the Knight’s history, separating fact from fantasy.
