I found Spalding's book to be quite filling. His ideas were easy to identify with. I felt as though I had travelled with Spalding. This book presents a sound idea of "God" and man's connection to "God". If religious, there should be a great appreciation for this book. You cannot read any of Spalding's volumes without appreciating the mind of Spalding and questioning your own. Appreciation for life, self, man and God are all felt on every page that is read. Spalding's volumes should be a collector's item. No college student or religious person should be denied the opportunity to travel the East with Spalding through his words.

Thank you.

This book has been shown to be fiction, the author made it up. At the time he claims these events took place and he claims to be 40-something years old at that time witnessing all these miraculous events with a team of scientists on this trip to the Himalayas, it is actually documented that he was a twenty-something working on mining jobs in the USA and Canada at that time. He lied about his date of birth (moving it 20 years earlier), his place of birth (US, not England), his name, and where he was at the time these supposed events took place (he was not really anywhere near the Himalayas, he was working at jobs in US & Canada at that time, that is documented). Just do a basic internet search on the authors pseudonym to find these documented facts. Sales of this book was his main source of income for the latter part of his life, when a lot of people were taken in by the story. There are lots of amazing events in this 5-volume book but not enough detail about the location to determine exactly where it took place, unlike the usual meticulousness with which scientists usually take notes, and none of the other fictional scientists on the team have ever come forward in real life to say they actually exist and were there too. IT DOES A GRAVE DISSERVICE AND BAD KARMA TO PERPETRATE A DECEPTION LIKE THIS BOOK AND PASS IT OFF AS A REAL EVENT, SINCE IT MAKES PEOPLE CONCLUDE THAT OTHER EVENTS MAY ALSO BE FICTIONAL, OTHER EVENTS THAT MIGHT ACTUALLY BE TRUE.

This is actually a volume of five books that chronical a scientific expedition in the late 1800's. The scientists broke up into smaller groups and Baird chronicalled his groups encounters. Sound simple enough? When on the expedition, Baird meets people that have lived for 700 years, one man that goes from being a very old man to a very young man, sound interesting? But wait, he meets Jesus who has brought along His good friend Pontius Pilot, and you hear how Pontius Pilot felt guilt for what he did to Jesus. This is the tip of the iceberg for an interesting read. It is the most "out there" book I have read, and yet the most freeing.

If you've read everything you can get your hands on.... this set of volumes by Baird should be on your list. In my 10 years of practice, I've only recommended this set 3 times, as you have to be well on your journey.
