Book Description

July 1, 1999
This rare book on the "Hollow Earth" theory was originally published in 1908 by Willis George Emerson, who relates the adventures of one Olaf Jansen, a Norwegian seafarer. His eloquent story of a land beyond the North pole was only one of many in its time. Many of the modern-day "polar myth" theories can trace their origins to these incredible journeys.

Jansen claimed that the northern aperture, intake or hole, so to speak, is about 1,400 miles across. He also reports that this area is inhabited by a race of tall human-looking beings who, he claims, were driven out of the Garden of Eden, and who brought their traditional history with them.

Join this adventure through the northern passage to a land that time has forgotten; to a land of gold and splendor; to a land that has yet to be "officially" discovered.

5.0 out of 5 stars The discovery of The Hollow Earth by Olaf Jansen and his father is truly amazing., May 19, 2009
The story is most fascinating. I read it to my husband and we found it to be completely believable. We were disappointed in the ending however and we wonder how our lives might be different if Mr. Jansen had been believed and more discoveries were made by other explorers to collabor-ate his story. How sad that we are so set in our ways, that we fear to change. I was hoping that he and his father might truly visit the hollow earth again, as they said they would, but not so. I would like to recommend all books by Dianne Robbins regarding the hollow earth. You will enjoy them too.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very interesting concept, September 9, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: The Smoky God: Or Journey to the Inner Earth (Paperback)
This book was given to me by a friend I highly respect. When he gave me a summary of the book, I thought it was a little far fetched. However, as I began to read this first-hand account, my opinion started to change.

Overall the book was an excellent read. Being that it was written in the mid 1850's, the language was a bit different from what we use today. Also, the author spends too much time, in my opinion, describing his journey into the earth. It would have been much better if he devoted more chapters to his experience while being inside for 2 years.
