    Tiring but amazing!
    I’ll keep this simple. People who read books like this (alternative theories) want proof. They want research links, physical evidence, and the proverbial “smoking gun.

    What a winner!

    Well Researched & Supported

    Big Ideas under a Silly Cover
    I picked up the book because of the title, but almost didn’t get it because of the cover, which made it look like a knock-off from the Graham Hancock-Erich Von Daniken school…
