Wolter traces the story of John Savage, a 17th-century American explorer and alleged Templar initiate, who chronicled his spiritual journey, coded maps, and initiatory rituals in hidden chambers beneath the American landscape. From the Hooked X symbol and Masonic rites, to alleged interactions with Indigenous peoples and journeys into subterranean vaults, the Cremona Document paints a radically different picture of North American history—one involving sacred geometry, lost treasures, and esoteric wisdom hidden in plain sight.

Wolter explores the link between the Templars, Freemasonry, and ancient initiation systems stretching back to Egypt, proposing that America itself was founded as a New Atlantis—a sacred experiment encoded with arcane knowledge.
