THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER
For thousands of years, the legend of Atlantis has gripped our imaginations. Until now, it has remained shrouded in myth. Is it possible that the Lost City actually existed?
On a trail of evidence that leads him around the world, Menzies uncovers the extraordinary truth. By examining new geological research, cargo salvaged from ancient wrecks and cutting-edge DNA data, he makes a staggering discovery: not only did Atlantis exist, but it was at the heart of an advanced Minoan civilization, the true extent of which has scarcely been imagined.
Here, Menzies shared his remarkable findings, including:
The present-day location of Atlantis
The cataclysm that destroyed it in 1,500 BC
The first ever decoding of the language of Atlantis
