5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliantly conceived, June 22, 2001
This review is from: The Books of the Golden Age: The Sacred and Inspired Writings of Mu, including My Old Preceptor, the Rishi (Hardcover)
The 'Books of the Golden Age' is a brilliantly conceived reproduction of a previously unknown manuscript held by a family member. It is written in Churchward's florid handwritting and contains probably 20 color plates of Churchward's folksy, informative paintings and other illustrations of maps, symbols etc. Of the four parts of the book, I liked the main section on 'Mu' and how it's influence and the development of man's divine spirit came to bear on later civilizations. This was written before 'the Lost Continent of Mu.' I also liked the section 'My Old Preceptor' whereby Churchward discusses his relationship with his mentor, the Rishi. This is a spiritual book, speaking of man's soul. Also sections about the Origin of the Bible and Freemasonry - both from Mu and Egypt. I liked it very much and highly recommend it for anyone seeking knowledge of previous civilizations...

1.0 out of 5 stars New book is a hoax, February 22, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: The Books of the Golden Age: The Sacred and Inspired Writings of Mu, including My Old Preceptor, the Rishi (Hardcover)
While it may have some pretty pictures done by James Churchward, it does not follow his original works, in tone, language or content. I also believe that handwriting analysis will show that James Churchward never even wrote the book.

This is a cheap money-making scheme to capitalize on the 'fame' of James Churchward, who was never in the British Army or attended Oxford or discovered any ancient tablets. History has shown him to be disreputable and dismissive of reality.

Please do not waste your money.
