5.0 out of 5 stars Great praise is due for this work., August 23, 1998

By	Roderick L. Schmidt([e-mail]) (Lone Pine, California USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Saga America (Paperback)

I worked with the author of Saga America because I lived nearby one on the sites he discussed, the source for the INYO ZODIAC. Originally, I was quite skeptical, but became convinced that Fell was correct. Besides the recognition of the Zodiac, Fell also found a notation that seemed to refer to the Vernal Equinox. That led to the discovery of the functions of a complete solar observatory. This book is a true landmark in epigraphic research. The good Professor Fell is no longer with us, but this book will help his memory last forever.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fell's work is perhaps the most important in this field, December 15, 1997

By	[e-mail] (Tacoma, Washington) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Saga America (Paperback)

Barry Fell's 3 books on European and Mediterreanian peoples exploration/colonization of North America are the best and most important work on this subject I've ever seen. I am trying to find copies of Saga America and Bronze Age America, having purchased America B.C. a few years back. It isn't politically correct writing that he did, but it was all true.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is A Must Read, March 17, 2002

By	Gary Tittle (Tracy, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Saga America (Paperback)

I am sad to see that most of Barry Fell's work is either out of print or going out of print. If you think you have American pre-history "wired", you better think again. This is not pseudo-history; it is the work of a chair of University history department and it is based on well-founded research and documentation. Forget the "Siberian Ice Bridge" and other things that are the distant past and consider the evidence for Libyan sailors on the Mississippi River - and Hebraic script transcriptions in a "prehistoric" cave in Los Lunas, New Mexico - I could just go on and on.... in short - get this before it cannot be had anymore. I am just amazed that such things go out of print....
