Richard Cassaro
Richard Cassaro's new book, The Missing Link , explores the meaning, transformations and propagation of the ancient world's most important religious icon.
His first book, Written in Stone, is a wide-ranging exploration of hitherto-unknown connections among Freemasons, medieval cathedral builders and the creators of important ancient monuments, in support of his theory that a spiritually advanced mother culture, lost to history, is behind many of the world's architectural and artistic traditions.
Prior to the publication of Written in Stone, Cassaro enjoyed a successful career as a U.S. correspondent for a major Italian publishing house, a managing editor for a popular U.S. magazine, a consultant to print and broadcast media, and a ghostwriter for a best-selling esoteric author. Cassaro, who is a graduate of Pace University in New York City, has examined first-hand the ancient ruins and mystical traditions of Egypt, Mexico, Greece, Italy, Sicily, France, England, India, Peru and Spain; he has lectured on his theories to great acclaim in the United States, Egypt, Italy, Spain and Peru.
