Another Look At Atlantis and Fifteen Other Essays

Atlantis, a new look at a lost continent...the building of the Great Pyramid...the dodos, the moas and the pangolins...the sound of meteors...the legal question of who will own the planets...these are just a few of the subjects discussed in this new collection of sixteen science and natural history essays by Willy Ley. Whether discussing the possibility that the giant ground sloth is really not extinct but alive and healthy in South America, or how to salvage a hundred and ten million dollar treasure ship off the coast of Holland, Willy Ley is always informative and entertaining.
