Mysteries of the Ancient Americas Hard Cover Review From Betsy Shorb:

"This book focuses on some puzzles [about] who "discovered" America, how and when the first settlers came, who built the New World pyramids, and Lost Citiesthat have intrigued historians, archaeologists, and laymen over the centuries. Each section contains various theories of explanation, which can range from the wild romancing of early explorers to the latest information from different fields of research. The text is highly readable and is accompanied by a wealth of color photographs, maps, and reconstructive drawings of various sites. This attractive volume will be useful for reports, but will also appeal to anyone who is fascinated by the color and lure of the past."
