    Interesting and original work

    An important addition to the growing collection of information on Atlantis and its origins. Solidly researched and based on both well known and obscure myths, this book presents a new theory that is neither too wildly speculative nor too conventional. A great reference book for beginners, experts on Atlantis, and students of comparative mythology.
