This is my first full scan of a paperback book. The original was destroyed in the scanning
process. The pages were yellowed and brittle from aging and acids in the paper. I have
very carefully proofread this book, and believe that very few errors slipped through the
cracks. More book scanners have to start proofreading their scans before releasing them. I
have gotten a hold of some Star Trek Scans that are barely understandable. This can be
discouraging. PLEASE proofread your work.
This book is legendary in the conspiracy circles. It started the \u201cAncient Astronaut\u201d
conspiracy and was copied by many other books, the best of which is Robert K. G.
Temple\u2019s \u201cThe Sirius Mystery\u201d which is a future scanning project of mine.
\u201cThe earth's crust was formed about 4 billion years ago, and all that science knows is that something like man existed 1 million years ago! And out of that gigantic river of time it has managed to dam up only a tiny rivulet of 7,000 years of human history...
"We--the paragons of creation?--took 400,000 years to reach our present state
and our present stature. Who can produce concrete proof to show why another
planet should not have provided more favorable conditions for the development of
other or similar intelligences?
"The time has come for us to admit our insignificance by making discoveries in the infinite unexplored cosmos. Only then shall we realize that we are nothing but ants in the vast state of the universe."
