Description
In this fascinating and ground-breaking work, million-selling author Charles Berlitz examines the cryptic historical puzzles scattered across the world, and offers a controversial explanation of a highly advanced race of forgotten people who populated the Western World in a time pre-dating recorded history.
Did the legendary lost City of Atlantis really exist? If not, what explanation can be given for the remnants of this mythical empire still to be seen in the Azores? And what of the existence of apparently inexplicable monoliths, such as Stonehenge, which can be found all over the world? Or even ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics discovered on cave walls in South America, which seem to indicate that the continent was known to civilization long before Columbus.
A rash claim or radical challenge to contemporary theories of ancient history? This extraordinary book must be read to be believed.
