Chariots of Gods Unknown: Unsolved Mysteries of the Past

Long before Erich von Daniken wrote Chariots of the Gods, Robert Charroux was writing about our historical visitors from outer space, otherwise called "Ancient Astronauts" or "Ancient Aliens," and stimulating his readers to deep thought and further investigation. This book is no exception. Chariots of Unknown Gods reveals unsuspected conceptual constructs, especially of the hitherto unpublished history of our Celtic ancestors - a history unpublished, and actually interdicted, because it runs counter to some of the statements made in the Bible, in Sumerian and other scriptures, and by historians and prehistorians. The whole history of Western civilization has, in fact, been deliberately distorted in order to develop a mental outlook encouraging particular modes of thought, behavior, and social structure.Charroux, who notably has worked with William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy on television documentaries concerning this topic, has prepared a serious work where nothing was shirked or neglected, and for which he dedicated himself to worldwide research. In 1968, for example, he covered 25,000 miles, traveling all over Mexico, Libya, and Tunisia. Few writers show such dedication and professional integrity in checking their sources. Charroux's readers will find in his immense documentation many ideas and proofs that will open up new vistas of understanding.Published by New Saucerian PressCover photography by Andrew Benjamin Colvin
