The object of the editors of this series is a very definite one. They desire above all things that, in their humble way, these books shall be the ambassadors of good-will and understanding between East and West, the old world of Thought, and the new of Action. In this endeavour, and in their own sphere, they are but followers of the highest example in the land. They are confident that a deeper knowledge of the great ideals and lofty philosophy of Oriental thought may help to a revival of that true spirit of Charity which neither despises nor fears the nations of another creed and colour. Finally, in thanking press and public for the very cordial reception given to the "Wisdom of the East" series, they wish to state that no pains have been spared to secure the best specialists for the treatment of the various subjects at hand. Large print 15 point font.
This compilation of research by these two authors presents the 'white man's' view of the Omaha Native Americans... and these authors add their awe and respect for this great people. The Omaha were quite an industrious organization before the Republican Radical Rumps destroyed their livelihood and lifestyle during the occupation years - aka Reconstruction.
Beginning in the late 1960s, both Brent Raynes and I started on a parallel quest in hunt of the truth about UFOs. Brent's many early trips included visits and contacts with some of ufology's major figures, people who became his friends, such as Betty Hill, Dr. Berthold Schwarz, and John Keel.
One of the most profound mysteries of the world towers above the desert sands of Egypt
Anglo-Saxon history is largely ignored by world history books, possibly due to the legends and myths that have come from that history, blurring the lines of history and fiction. Yet, the history is as full and rich as are the myths.
This ignored scientific research was by one of India's political warriors, who dared to confront the British occupation and British destruction of his homeland. Based on independent research, astronomical facts, and from the Vedas themselves, Tilak proves that these precious manuscripts were written around or in excess of 6000 years ago. Oddly enough this lines up with biblical interpretation that mankind started 6000 years ago...and that the Great Pyramid of Egypt, too was established on a certain position of Orion.

WHY is this book written? is the most pertinent question asked an author at the outset of composition. It is echoed and re-echoed by critic and reader upon its publication. It certainly appears to be a fair question whenever, the subjects seem so much out of the route of ordinary in formation, as the present volume.
The poetic prophecy of the god Pan. Pan's prophecy is related to the inner values and awareness of man.
Generally considered as a legend, this author presents Pantika as a religion, a culture, and a way of life as observed by the ancients. These legends were as real to that people as Christianity is to its adherents.
This relatively new theory challenges the mainstream idea that the mankind (and/or the caucasion, aryan, white races) originated in the Mesopotamian Valley. There are indeed many evidences, facts and ancient writings that originate mankind's beginnings from the two Arctic regions. This book takes us one step farther... Eden was at the North Pole?! Sounds crazy, but such ideas are also embedded in ancient Jewish writings.
Persia is the land of mystery, and the source of modern civilization. It preserved knowledge through the Christian dark ages, and that knowledge preserved was used to catapult civilization into the industrial ages.
The re-discovered ancient city of the Edomites that was lost for over a thousand years and only re-discovered in the 19th Century. From beneath the shifting sands that cover ancient Petra has emerged evidence that has shed light on the city and its people . . . a people woven intermittently across the pages of the Bible.
The treasures of ancient high art lately unearthed at Luxor have excited the admiring interest of a breathless world, and have awakened more vividly than before a sense of the vast antiquity of the so-called 'Modern Civilization,' as it existed over three thousand year ago in far-off Ancient Egypt and Syria-Phoenicia.
