Synopsis: Many have an enduring fascination for mythical lost realms like Atlantis—because they don’t believe they’re entirely mythical! Documented evidence supports that some ancient stories of lost worlds are grounded in truth. This adventurous volume delves into the most celebrated legendary civilizations and cities, beginning with Atlantis, but also including Camelot, El Dorado, and Lemuria. It examines where the lore may have originated, whether rooted in world history or outlandishly fun extraterrestrial theories. Readers can use all the evidence, supported by creative images and real-life photographs, to decide what they believe about each tale.
