Walking in the nearly forgotten footsteps of the legendary first Knights Templar, an American and a 68-year old Frenchman embark on a mission all their own. Traveling simply and trusting in the kindness of strangers, they set off to carry a message of peace along a route historically used for war.
Their incredible journey will lead them thousands of miles across eleven countries and two continents to Jerusalem.
After the outbreak of war, everything is uncertain — except for their steadfast and perhaps life-threatening resolve.
This true, poignant tale is a powerful testimony to the courage of the human spirit and an affirmation of the dream of peace still very much alive in the world today. It also provides a signpost for those who dream of making a similar journey along this trail; one destined to become a path of peace for people of all nations, cultures and faiths.
Join them on a heartwarming and historic odyssey.

"A fascinating testimony of faith and gumption that inspired two men to take seven million steps for peace. A must read..." ~ Arun Gandhi, M.K. Gandhi Institute for Nonviolence, University of Rochester, NY
