Abstract
THE Atlantis problem affects so many departments of scientific inquiry that it is always with us. Mr. Lewis Spence, author of a series of books on the folk-lore of America and Egypt, is an enthusiastic champion of the existence of Atlantis, and of the historic importance of the Atlanteans. In this volume he conveniently collects the classical-traditions on the subject and evidence from geology, biological distribution, archaeology, and folk-lore, of a former connexion between Central America and the Mediterranean region by a transatlantic land.
The Problem of Atlantis.
