Synopsis

In this fascinating book Michael Baigent tackles those oddities and unanswered questions in early history which continue to puzzle those with unprejudiced minds. Why do animal fossils continue to show up in rocks much older than when life on Earth is supposed to have started? Does the ape Lucy, claimed by some to be an ancestor of man, play any role in his development at all? Where was the Atlantis that Plato wrote about? And what is the true connection between the pyramids and the Orion star-belt? Michael Baigent gives a riveting and lucid account of these endlessly interesting questions.
