Editorial Reviews

Product Description

The belief that the Earth is hollow can be traced back for centuries and has captivated such notable figures as Adolf Hitler and Edmund Halley. Combining scientific research with eyewitness accounts, this book seeks to answer the most baffling unexplained mysteries, such as Was this inner world inhabited before mankind set foot on the Earth's surface? Did the people of Atlantis and Mu take refuge there when catastrophe overtook them? and Do UFOs come, not from outer space, but from inside our own planet? From polar explorers' observations to satellite photographs, the scientific evidence gathered here gives credence to the mysterious legend of a hollow Earth.

2.0 out of 5 stars Basically Hollow, March 19, 2004

By	LV (FRANKLIN, MA USA) - See all my reviews

The book is quite bias toward the theory of a literally hollow earth and never wavers from that conviction. But in case you don't already know this, there is a big difference between the histories, stories and legends of many subterranean abodes, and the seemingly modern theory of a literally hollow planet. But is it really just a modern theory? I wish I could say that I know of other great books on this general subject, but I can't. I've read about a half dozen books dedicated to the subject of inner earth, which is about all you're likely to find in nonfiction. And I've found all of them quite flawed in various ways, including this one. Not that I reject the idea of a hollow planet, there is something about it that appeals to my left brain. The unimaginable, monumental mass of a solid planet strikes me as unstable when rotating at 1000 mph. How could it stay balanced, and a high perfection of balance would be necessary for a solid planet. I find it interesting that the teachings of Ramtha state matter-of-factly, that all planets are, and must be hollow. It is the only manner possible for them to form. I can't seem to get around how that rings true to me. Anyway, by far the best option to explore this subject is on-line in my opinion.

5.0 out of 5 stars this book is *very* good!, June 29, 2000

By A Customer

I saw this book sitting on the shelf of the new age section at a bookstore and was immediately drawn to it. I'd never heard of such a theory but the description of the book seemed interesting.

I must say that after reading it from cover to cover in just one day, I am a believer that the earth really may be hollow and there is actually alot of evidence to sustain this.

Things such as writings from the earliest civilations, the aurora borealis, UFOs, giants, fairies, holes at the poles, and all kinds phenomenon, are covered in this book - not to mention, the idea that the earth's interior is solid is only a theory and has never actually been proven.

Highley reccommend!

1.0 out of 5 stars Close, but way off..., September 3, 2000

By A Customer

There are holes at the north and south poles. Just because everyone is saying they're a 100 miles across, you'll probably never believe it, but there is one right on the location of bentley's subglacial trench in Antarctica. Believe it or not, there are much stranger things. In this book, there is one supposed photo taken by apollo showing an opening, but it is really a photo of Olympus mons of mars. It might be a mistake on his part (and not intentional) but either way, it makes the idea of a hole look dumb. I even think Olympus mons might be a hole and not a volcano. The mist blocks the entrance. Another thing is, this guy talks about Cyrus Teed and his inverted planet theory. (that we live inside and the earth is concave) He goes out of his way to make Teed look crazy. At the time I read this book, I was only beginning to research this stuff. Thank the Lord that I even heard the truth before I died. The planet is concave. Teed was right and the whole world laughed him to scorn in 1905. Not only is Teed right, but also the north and south poles are gateways to another planet. That is all you need to know. Do not buy this book, it is the same lies that are on the net.
