Product Description

Product Description

Next in the popular "Element Encyclopedia" series, comes the complete A-Z of alternative history. Discover everything you ever wanted to know about secret societies like the Freemasons, the historical mystery of Atlantis, why King Arthur, Leonardo da Vinci and Hitler are key figures, plus conspiracy theories, forgotten sciences and ancient wisdom. This is a complete and informative A-Z for one of the most popular genres to have emerged in recent times - the hidden history of the last 10,000 years. This encyclopedia answers all your questions on the more controversial subjects being debated: conspiracies and secret societies, e.g. Knights Templars, the Rosicrucians, the Freemasons, the Bavarian Illuminati, the Hellfire Club, the Ku Klux Klan, and the Priory of Sion. It also includes secret traditions, hidden bloodlines, extraterrestrial intervention, imminent apocalypse, and the Mayan calendar prophecies. It includes ancient wisdom and forgotten sciences, e.g. alchemy, prophecy, sacred geometry, ley lines, and magic, as well as supports evidence for advanced technologies in ancient times e.g. the mysteries of Stonehenge and the Great Pyramids. It features unsolved historical mysteries, e.g. the location of Atlantis, the early history of Christianity, the Holy Grail, the fate of the Knights Templars, the authorship of Shakespeare's plays, the causes of the French Revolution, and the occult roots of Nazism. It talks about key figures in hidden history - Pythagoras, Jesus of Nazareth, Leonardo da Vinci, King Arthur, Roger Bacon, John Dee, Alessandro Cagliostro, the Comte de St.-Germain, Benjamin Franklin, and Adolf Hitler.

5.0 out of 5 stars Most Interesting to say the least..., 5 Jul 2008
Whatever particular sect, group, cult, society or club you are interested in, this book has the information you are looking for. With 10,000 years worth of history covering everything from Atlantis to the modern day Freemasons through to the more obscure and little known sects, it certainly has the scoop on everything you'll ever want to know about Secret Societies and mysterious cults throughout the ages.

1.0 out of 5 stars Learnt nothing, 3 Sep 2009
It is like a dictionnary without depth on it. All explanations are really superficial. I would not recommand this book.
