The original 1925 edition, meticulously preserved. This edition moves beyond the sterile, mass-market reproductions often found today to bring you a premium Collector's Facsimile. Every page maintains the historical pagination and aesthetic of the source text, paired with a bespoke cover design unique to this imprint. In Atlantis in America, Lewis Spence advances the argument that the Atlantis tradition reflects a genuine historical memory rather than a literary myth. Drawing on archaeology, ethnology, geology, linguistics, and comparative mythology, he contends that ancient American civilizations preserve clear survivals of Atlantean influence. Spence points to parallels in monumental architecture, symbolism, cosmology, and religious tradition, with particular emphasis on Mesoamerican cultures and figures such as Quetzalcoatl, interpreted as remnants of Atlantean culture-heroes. Written in an authoritative Edwardian scholarly style, the book presents Atlantis as a serious historical hypothesis and a unifying explanation for the shared features of early civilizations on both sides of the Atlantic.
