Atlantis: The Antediluvian World explores the mysteries and possibilities of a lost civilization that may have shaped ancient history. Originally written by Ignatius Donnelly, this groundbreaking work pieces together mythological, geological, and historical clues that suggest Atlantis was once a thriving, technologically advanced society destroyed by a cataclysm.
