Dinosaurs: Dead or Alive? - Cryptozoology by Phillip O'Donnell Average Rating: "The author of this book is a 14 year old home-schooled Christian. The entire book promotes his Creationism theories. He mentions that Hitler was an evolutionist. He condemns National Geographic magazine as one of evolution's top propagators. He compares 'evolution' belief to communism and dictators. Chapter 14 is titled "Consequences of Belief in Evolution". ..."
Swords at Sunset: Last Stand of North America's Grail Knights by Michael Bradley Average Rating: "Much as I liked the Da Vinci Code, it was a work of fiction and cannot compare to the amazing non-fiction Swords at Sunset by Michael Bradley. I can't say enough good things about Swords at Sunset: It is thoroughly researched and it presents very interesting evidence that the Knights Templar snuck the Holy Grail into North America during the Inquisition in Europe centuries ago. ..."
The Lost Treasure of King Juba: The Evidence of Africans in America before Columbus by Frank Joseph Average Rating: "Frank Joseph's latest book offers a good overview of the controversy surrounding the Burroughs Cave,well known in diffusionist circles but less so elsewhere.While he can't prove the authenticity of the artifacts he does clearly lay out how the controversy developed and the reasons he believes the artifacts are 'real'.The automatic anti-diffusionist bias of conventional academia definitely does prevent a fair ascesment of the case, though many diffusionists remain skeptical as well. ..."
The Secret of the Spear: The Mystery of the Spear of Longinus (Mysteries of the Universe) by Alec MacLellan Average Rating: "According to The Gospel of John (chapter 19, verses 28 through 37) in the New Testament, as Jesus Christ hung on the Cross a Roman centurion pierced His side with a spear. Variously called the Holy Lance, the Spear of Christ and the Spear of Destiny, this strange relic has been written about in novels and non-fiction books, in many languages, for nearly two thousand years. ..."
Mound Builders: Edgar Cayce's Forgotten Record of Ancient America by Gregory L. Little Average Rating: "You know what you know - don't you? Do you know what you don't know? You probably know by now everything the teachers told you in school was not true, a product of ignorance or just plan wrong (if not then you are indeed in for a shock with this book). ..."
The Dream Culture of the Neanderthals: Guardians of the Ancient Wisdom by Stan Gooch Average Rating: "History has shown an inexhaustible capacity for conflict. Its hypnotic pendulum motion is often brilliantly described but rarely explained. Stan Gooch has spent a lifetime understanding the pre-historic dynamics that have impacted on our historic past. This exceptional scientist, psychologist, linguist, philosopher, writer, is one of the few people who has made sense out of the confusion of our inheritance. ..."
Stone Age Soundtracks: The Acoustic Archaeology of Ancient Sites by Paul Devereux Average Rating: "This book reveals an exciting new field in the investigation of ancient sites: acoustic archaeology. It brings to light a vanished aspect of the past with the aid of computer modelling and sophisticated equipment to calculate frequencies and resonances. These investigations have demonstrated that stone chambers, temples, dolmens, menhirs and even paleolithic caves were deliberately constructed or used in ways that would enhance the ritual sounds produced within them. ..."
Ancient South America: Recent Evidence Supporting Edgar Cayce's Story of Atlantis and Mu by Gregory L. Little Average Rating: "This book seeks to correlate times of human migrations -- from Atlantis and Mu to South America - with dates derived from mutation rates of individuals' mitochondrial DNA and with Cayce-readings dates for three destructions of Atlantis and Mu. Roughly two-thirds of the text succeeds in this endeavor. The remaining third fails miserably. Authors' ignorance of what the readings actually say, coupled with the delight that goes with making up and then referring to imaginary "Cayce readings," is probably the best explanation of what has spoiled this book. In what might be an otherwise useful study, one finds evidence of deceptive interpretations of several Cayce readings and embarrassing references to imaginary ones. ..."
