Product Description
Product Description
In this text, the author goes in search of the real Atlantis. Collins pieces together Plato's story to answer the questions and unravel the mysteries surrounding the mythical land, and argues that he can not only demonstrate the actual existence of the island, but can also reveal its location.

Andrew Collins search for the legend of the lost city of Atlantis takes him to the four corners of the world.What starts of as a small clue ends up as a full blown hunt for Atalantis.It does get heavy going in parts,but stay with it as this book,to me anyway,is then one of the best written in a long line of Atlantis legend hunts.The outcome of the long hunt is a conspiracy theorists dream,with the Roman empire and cover ups involved.The whole book is thought provoking and an eye opener.

I'm not, or wasn't particularly interested in Atlantis, I ordered the book because it had good reviews. I found though, that it was really interesting, and I started developing an interest as I read. The evidence of cross-atlantic trade is facinating, and so is the link into Mexico, the Yucatan, and a trade network from Peru to the Caribbean. Interest is maintained right through. The research is v.good. It really delves deep into the source of the mystery, and there's no silly aliens/new age stuff. I think you'll like it, even if you have no interest in the subject.

I am so pleased to see that this book has sold over 85,000 copies within just a few months. Surely it must be one of the best-selling books of its type recently published in Britain, if not all of Europe. Mr Collins has been writing astonishingly good books for years. It is about time he had this phenomenal best seller.
