The Destruction of Atlantis by Frank Joseph
ANCIENT CULTURES / NEW SCIENCE A valuable addition to the study of lost civilizations and ancient maritime exploration. Essential reading for all true Atlantologists. --Andrew Collins, author of From the Ashes of Angels and Gateway to Atlantis Definitely a can't-put-downer and must-read book for the enthusiast of ancient mysteries. --Robert G. Bauval, author of The Orion Mystery and Message of the Sphinx This book should be a standard-issue text in all high school and college history courses. It will stand the test of time. --Robert R. Hieronimus, Ph.D., host of 21st-Century Radio and author of America's Secret Destiny All human cultures, from classical and biblical to native North and South American, share the myth of an ancient deluge that often coincides with a rain of fire from the heavens. Now, in The Destruction of Atlantis, author Frank Joseph links this worldwide cultural phenomenon to the story of the lost civilization of Atlantis, which in a single day and night disappeared into the sea in a violent cataclysm. In the most comprehensive account of this legendary island, Frank Joseph provides compelling evidence based on twenty years of research around the globe that Atlantis was at the root of all subsequent human civilizations. Refuting modern skepticism, he provides evidence from archaeology, geology, astronomy, and ancient lore to prove the existence of Atlantean civilization in the context of Near Eastern Bronze Age society at the end of the 13th century B.C. He combines hard scientific evidence with a stunning and imaginative re-creation of what it must have been like to walk the streets of Atlantis in its last days. The resulting portrait of a mighty empire corrupted by an overreaching lust for wealth and power offers an important lesson to our own materialistic civilization. A journalist and researcher, FRANK JOSEPH is the editor in chief of Ancient American magazine and the author of The Lost Treasure of King Juba and Synchronicity and You. He lives in Colfax, Wisconsin.
After its publication by Boston's Element Books, in 1999, Frank Joseph's Synchronicity & You, Understanding the Role of Meaningful Coincidence in your Life was released in Japan, Holland, Hungary, Slovenia, Mexico, twice in Italy and twice in England. He was subsequently interviewed by several nationwide radio broadcasters, such as Art Bell, Whitley Strieber, and Jeff Rense. Joseph has been Shirley MacLaine's featured guest for half a dozen of the film celebrity's Internet shows. He is a frequent speaker at Minnesota's Theosophical Society, together with Association for Research and Enlightenment chapters in Virginia, Illinois, Texas, Arkansas and Wisconsin. Dozens of his related articles have appeared in Fate and Australia's New Dawn magazines over the last thirty years, while Joseph's other metaphysical books include Sacred Sites, a Guidebook to Mystical Centers (MN: Llewellyn Publications, 1992); Sacred Sites of the West (WA: Hancock House, 1997); Opening the Ark of the Covenant (NJ: New Page Books, 2007); Gods of the Runes (VT: Bear & Company, 2010); and Places of Power (Bear & Co., 2018). He lives today with his wife, Laura, and their Norwegian Forest cat, Sammy, in the Upper Mississippi Valley.
