5.0 out of 5 stars A rational methodical readable work of an interesting subject
By Rick M. Pilotte on October 3, 2008
I'm truly surprised to find I'm the first person to review this great work!!!

During the early part of my research, I came across enough chatting about Atlantis that made me wonder if there's wasn't something to the Atlantis Myth. This was the first Berlitz work I encountered in my research and it was so good that ever since I have bought anything written by this man(Except his language books). He approaches his research methodically and for the most part in depth, though I have found a couple of his works which don't appear to be quite as thorough...one of his earlier works, and one which was more a sampling of interesting stories.

This work was excellent, and far better than his earlier attempt at the Atlantis "myth". Typically people who consider the reality of Atlantis are either completely enamoured of the subject or completely antagonistic towards it, usually because it so upsets conventional geologic theories as it would mean the earth changed radically during civilized times. To me the enamoured people seemed to me like they were part of some sort of lunatic fringe...

When I started to read this book I was in the middle, as I didn't know enough to be able to speak knowledgeably one way or the other. This book gave convincing evidence to the affirmative and made me look seriously at some things that otherwise I might have passed over.

Berlitz approaches the subject rationally and coherently. He seems a bit detached from his works as he never seems to positively identify himself with the complete agreement of his evidence...but I suppose that may be due to his determination to appear unbiased. Fair enough.

This is a highly recommendable book on the subject of Atlantis, and it will indeed allow you to take a fair look at the legends and see some very good evidence for the case. And to top it off it is very readable stuff. I enjoyed this work and subsequently bought every book I could find by this guy as he was so logistical, rational and methodical in his work.

The mainstream uniformitarian and evolutionary media and scholastic branches and those who hold fast to their opinions will not like Berlitzs' work simply because he researches stuff and finds all kinds of stuff the mainstream hides from the common man. This guy is not afraid to reveal much of the stuff out there and he presents it extremely well.

When My step dad wanted some interesting reading I handed him some of the better research book's I'd read and several of them were by Berlitz.
I highly recommend this one.
