"We all live within the ruins of an ancient structure, whose vast size has hitherto rendered it invisible. The entire surface of the earth is marked with the traces of a gigantic work of prehistoric engineering, the remains of a once universal system of natural magic, involving the use of polar magnetism together with another positive force related to solar energy".

THE VIEW OVER ATLANTIS.
In recent years archaeologists have revised many of their opinions about the level of sophistication achieved by so called Stone Age Civilisations. In The View Over Atlantis John Michell argues that the whole earth was linked in prehistoric times by a common cultural heritage whose origins are traced to the lost civilisation of Atlantis – a tradition preserved in the folklore of widely separated peoples.

Evidence of prehistoric engineering techniques survives in many forms : the straight tracks of ancient Britain known as "ley lines" the zodiacal Giants of Glastonbury Tor ; the Great Pyramid in Egypt ; Stonehenge, Woodhenge and the "dragon tails" in China. The author explains in fascinating detail the significance of their amazingly accurate alignments and mathematical proportions.
