Excerpt from Mystery of the Golden Cloth: The Story of the Christ, A Book of the Ages

Upon the living-room table in my father's house had lain from my earliest recollections an ancient manuscript book, about which the most fascinating traditions had gathered.

It was known as the Golden Cloth, or Cloth of Gold, and wrought into its fibers were interpreted certain promises that to its possessor some day would come a great reward.

This cloth was an heirloom to my father, as it had been to his father, and so on back from father to son to a period beyond the point we were able to trace our family tree. Just why it had been so closely preserved and so carefully handed down was never rationally accounted for.
